The spectacular evening will showcase the smarts and talent of 52 women representing their home states and territories as they attempt to bring the title home. Only one woman will win the coveted Miss America crown.
"As we barrel towards our 100th anniversary, I am so proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with dick clark productions, ABC and the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) in Atlantic City as we join forces to create great television and continue celebrating the empowerment of America's most outstanding young women," said Sam Haskell, executive chairman and CEO of the Miss America Organization.
