Oprah had a hard childhood that led her to have a strained relationship with her mother. Her mother eventually sent her to live with her father, Vernon, who helped his daughter stay on the right path. He was strict and encouraged her to focus on education. When she was 17, she won the Miss Black Tennessee beauty pageant. A local black radio station then hired her to read the news part time, which she did for three years.
