Georgia Frontiere (November 21, 1927 — January 18, 2008) was the co-owner and chairwoman of the St. Louis Rams.

After going to college at Pepperdine University for business and working for several years as a secretary, Frontiere decided that she wanted to enter show business. She moved to Los Angeles and later Miami, where she worked as a dancer, a singer, a weather forecaster, and in various other jobs.
