      She has a great conversion story too. It's in her book "The Simeon Solution."

                BYU grad Kelsey Nixon was on Next Food Network star and occasionally appears on the channel.

                Kristen Cox unsuccessfully ran on the Maryland gubernatorial ticket with Ehrlich in 2006. Prior to that she was a special adviser in the Bush administration on disability issues.

                        This is a weak list. What does this say about our active Mormon women? Or is it symptomatic of our culture? Why is this such a collection of d listers?

                            From Sister Beck's "Mothers Who Know"

                            Mothers who know are nurturers. This is their special assignment and role under the plan of happiness. To nurture means to cultivate, care for, and make grow. Therefore, mothers who know create a climate for spiritual and temporal growth in their homes. Another word for nurturing is homemaking. Homemaking includes cooking, washing clothes and dishes, and keeping an orderly home. Home is where women have the most power and influence; therefore, Latter-day Saint women should be the best homemakers in the world. Working beside children in homemaking tasks creates opportunities to teach and model qualities children should emulate. Nurturing mothers are knowledgeable, but all the education women attain will avail them nothing if they do not have the skill to make a home that creates a climate for spiritual growth. Growth happens best in a “house of order,” and women should pattern their homes after the Lord’s house (see D&C 109). Nurturing requires organization, patience, love, and work. Helping growth occur through nurturing is truly a powerful and influential role bestowed on women
                            President Benson's "To The Mothers in Zion"

                            In the eternal family, God established that fathers are to preside in the home. Fathers are to provide, to love, to teach, and to direct. But a mother’s role is also God-ordained. Mothers are to conceive, to bear to
                            nourish, to love, and to train. So declare the revelations.

                            Young mothers and fathers, with all my heart I counsel you not to postpone having your children, being co-creators with our Father in Heaven. Do not use the reasoning of the world, such as, “We will wait until we can better afford having children, until we are more secure, until John has completed his education, until he has a better paying job, until we have a larger home, until
                            we have obtained a few of the material conveniences,” and on and on. This is the reasoning of the world and is not pleasing in the sight of God. Mothers who enjoy good health, have your children and have them early.
                            It's not really that astonishing that it's difficult to think of dozens of famous LDS women with successful careers.
                            "You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad Judge

                              To be fair, I can't name off-hand dozens of extraordinarily famous LDS men either.

                              And the LDS emphasis on marriage and family, the LDS tendency to marry young and have a bunch of kids, and the way so many LDS people live in Utah and adjacent states are things that aren't particularly helpful in becoming famous and successful for men either.

                                Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
