- Miss California (1926)
- The granddaughter of a California Forty-Niner, Aloha Porter was a graduate of Venice High School; she won the Miss California pageant in 1926 and went to Atlantic City to participate in the Miss America pageant. In an 1932 newspaper article published in the San Mateo (Cal.) "Times and Daily News-Leader", she complained that "The fact that a girl is a former beauty contest winner can be a drawback rather than an advantage as concerns a film career...for the reason...that it is properly supposed that beauty is her only virtue, hence the chance to prove oneself as an actress is often denied her." A few years later, she retired, married a Pasadena dentist, and devoted the rest of her life to the breeding, exhibition and judging of show horses.
