Boca resident Amy Vitale is a woman of many parts. The Tampa transplant's acting resume includes stints on the CW Network and the USA Network Series "Burn Notice," and she is also a model with The Patriot Girls and a pro wrestling diva. The Patriot Girls was founded in May of 2007, and models and photographers donate time to appear in calendars and at special events, with a portion of the proceeds going to related charities.
"I have been active supporting the troops through a number of causes, and someone from the Patriot Girls came across my profile online. It is not a political organization and they do not support a particular party, just the troops," she said. Her role in the world of indie-pro wrestling is that of a snobbish, beautiful foil who typically ends up in a bind.
"I've had everything from cakes in the face to being thrown into lakes, and it is so much fun. I was introduced to wresting at an early age, and I remember how beautiful the women involved were and wanting to be just like them," she said.
Vitale has been voted Florida Woman of the Year three years in row and Pro Wrestling Manager of the Year two years in a row, and she said that it's not all fun and games.
"It takes a lot of conditioning and hard work to stay in shape, and it really is nice when the hard work pays off," she said. For more information, visit www.amyvitale.net
