Over two million women – and men – have become Powers models graduates including First Ladies Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis; and Betty Ford; Grace Kelly; Ava Gardner; Joan Crawford; Barbara Stanwyck; Lee Remick; Diana Ross; Henry Fonda; Tyrone Power; Elizabeth Taylor; and Montgomery Clift.

“With the thrust of businesses and professionals to the Albuquerque, we feel that we’re in a good position – or location, if you will – to help achieve whatever personal goals a candidate may have,” Horner adds.
