Sarah French (born September 17, 1985) is an American journalist. She is currently an anchor/reporter for WCNC 36 in Charlotte, NC. After the murder of her friend and colleague Alice Morrin, French became an advocate for domestic violence victims and worked with Connecticut legislators, trying to pass a 911 texting bill in Morrin's name. In 2010, French was awarded the “Excellence in Local Television Award" by the National Lesbian & Gay Journalists Association for an hour-long special called “Gay in America: Tensions & Tolerance." That special focused on several teens who killed themselves after being bullied.
French competed in the Miss Teen USA and Miss America pageants. She was born in Dallas, Texas, but grew up in Hot Springs, Arkansas, and then moved to Columbia, Missouri, to attend college.
French won the Miss Arkansas Teen USA 2004 title in a state pageant held in late 2003. It was her first attempt at the title. She went on to represent Arkansas in the Miss Teen USA 2004 pageant held in Palm Springs, California, in August 2004. French did not place in the nationally televised pageant, which was won by Shelley Hennig of Louisiana, but she did win the Miss Photogenic award. This award, chosen by a public internet vote, is given to the delegate who most "exemplifies beauty through the lens of a camera".
French, a 2004 graduate of Lakeside High School in Arkansas, later moved to Columbia, Missouri, to study Broadcast Journalism at the University of Missouri. While there she won the Miss Mid-Missouri title and competed for the Miss Missouri 2006 title, which she won. Sarah is one of only a few Miss Teen USA delegates to win a Miss America state title, and it is even more rare than she has held titles in different states.
