Model, Actress, and Humanitarian. For many years she worked with The Children's Miracle Network, and raised millions of dollars for quite a few hospitals. Quite a few firsts to her credit. First AfrAmerican woman to win the title of Miss Ohio. One of the first of AfrAmerican women to be in the last 10 semi-finalists in the Miss America Pageant. She was one of the first females, period, to become a sports announcer for the NFL, and boxing in male-dominated commentary in sports. She was the first AfrAmerican woman to be on the cover of Playboy Magazine. She was also one of the first celebrities to endure the flack from a "home sex video" with her, then, husband. Only two people should have had any access to that tape. Surely Jayne didn't plan for it's public emergence. Hell hath no fury as an ex scorned. She was still married to her first husband, who was trying his hand at producing, and directing feature films, when she played a part in his movie that came out called "Body, and Soul." In this movie my brother, Chuck, played a small part as a (boxing)ringside judge.
