Miss America award winners
The most frequently presented Miss America Awards are for preliminary talent and swimsuit. The Talent award was introduced in 1936, and Swimsuit in 1940. In the 2000s preliminary awards for evening gown and interview were briefly introduced but were discontinued after two years as it was felt that they made the semi-finalists too predictable.
Other awards include Miss Congeniality, given out in the early years of the pageant and re-introduced at Miss America 2006, and the Quality of Life award for a contestant's platform, first awarded in 1989.
