Howard Chandler Christy

January 10, 1873 - Howard Chandler Christy, born in Morgan Township, drew cheesecake portraits of women that became known as Christy Girls. He was the sole judge of the first Miss America pageant and a later work, The Signing of the Constitution, still hangs in the U.S. Capitol Building.
