Born and raised in Niagara Falls, N.Y.,
JoAnna Ward moved to Atlanta with her family when she
was an adolescent. She moved to South Carolina to attend
college after being recruited on a basketball
scholarship. She went on to receive her bachelor's
degree in English education and her master's degree in
education in school guidance counseling from South
Carolina State University. She currently works as a
school guidance counselor. She is also an Aerobics and
Fitness Association of America (AFAA) Certified aerobic
instructor.
Ward enjoys fellowship with Christian believers and
spending time with her son, Dontré. She also enjoys
tae bo, basketball, mountain climbing and running. She
describes herself as strong, courageous and independent.
If she could hold political office, she would become the
mayor of a small town. She has done several commercials
and made a brief appearance in the movie "Juwanna
Mann." She considers her greatest achievement to be
when she became a born-again Christian which she feels
changed her into a better person. "One of my most
enjoyable hobbies is lifting up the name of the Lord
Jesus Christ in pure praise and worship." She
considers her mother, who recently passed away, to be
the most influential person in her life. Having had the
support of family and friends, she is doing this to
prove to herself that she is truly a survivor outside of
life's common adversities. If she wins the $1 million,
she will buy a new house.
Ward is currently single and living in Orangesburg, S.C.
Her birth date is April 29, 1971
