Miss America 2002, the 75th Miss America pageant, was televised live from Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey on September 22, 2001 on the ABC Network. The pageant was won by Katie Harman of Oregon, the first woman representing that state to take the crown.
Prior to the competition, the delegates spent a weekend in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where they participated in a parade and attended a reception and did some sightseeing. During their first week in Atlantic City, the September 11 attacks occurred, but despite the cancelling of the traditional pageant-eve parade, it was decided to hold the pageant as intended. The contestants themselves voted 2-1 to continue with the competition.
