Tina Turner

The bonafide Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll Tina Turner is a woman of many talents. She can command every room she enters with her powerful voice. She is also a songwriter, actor, dancer and was once a nurse.

Turner worked briefly after high school as a nurse’s aide at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis. However, once her music career took off, she did not pursue nursing as a career anymore.
