Jennie Garth, Sophomore Yearbook Photo, Apollo High School, Glendale, Arizona, 1988
Garth left high school in Arizona to move to Los Angeles and pursue an acting career. She later received her high school diploma in California. She doesn’t look that different from the types of girls she played on television, including Kelly Taylor with her 1980s hair. Back in Arizona, Garth wanted to open a dancing studio when she grew up. Garth’s high school days were not all glamour. She remembers many different after-school jobs she had: “I worked as a secretary, a waitress, and a dance teacher—all in high school. I taught 3-year-olds how to tap-dance. I think I was the only one with the patience to do it.” Kelly Taylor would have died first or hired someone else to do it for her.
