JAN
GENTRY's BIO as we first saw it on the
CBS
Survivor Website: |
Born in Fort Worth, Texas, Jan Gentry attended
several colleges (including Texas Tech University
and the University of Texas) before receiving a
Bachelor of Science degree in Education from Lamar
University. She then attended Texas Wesleyan
College, where she received an additional teaching
 certificate
for the mentally handicapped. She currently works as
a first grade teacher in Lutz, Florida. Previously,
she was employed as tennis legend Martina
Navratilova's secretary. She also owned her own
business hand-painting custom baskets and worked at
a clothing store in Orlando, Florida.
Jan describes herself as a charismatic people-person
who is also a logical thinker with good
problem-solving abilities. She enjoys running in
triathlons, tennis, golf and fishing. On her perfect
day, she would work out, then fish on her boat while
drinking a beer and listening to Willie Nelson. She
would cap off the day by grilling the day's catch
while enjoying a few more beers and a good cigar.
Jan currently resides in Tampa, Florida with her
husband, Bill. She considers her five children, Jef
(26), Molly (24), Lisa (20), William (18), and
Keller (18) to be her greatest accomplishments. Her
pets include a fish named Jake, a guinea pig named
Beethoven and a cockatiel named Fred.
