Jeanne Swanner Robertson (born September 21, 1943) is an American humorist, motivational speaker and a former Miss North Carolina and physical education teacher.
Personal life Jeanne is married to Jerry Robertson, a graduate of Duke University (where, at 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m) tall and on an athletic scholarship, he played on its basketball team — eventually as its captain). He received his master's degree and doctorate at the University of North Carolina and was an educator and eventually Superintendent of the Alamance County School System. In her performances, Jeanne calls him "Left Brain". They have a son, Bailey "Beaver" Bowline, who is 6 ft 8 in (2.03 m) tall. Beaver is a 1989 graduate of Elon University, where Jeanne is a trustee. He and his wife Dayna have two sons, Ryder and Gray.
Jeanne and Jerry Robertson are both members of Elon University's Phoenix Club which supports the athletic program. Jeanne is Methodist.
She has claimed her favorite television series is The Andy Griffith Show. Her Mayberry Humor Across the USA furthers her connection to Griffith's show. The book title refers to Mayberry, the town which is the setting of Griffith's show.
