November 18

Claudia Ledington, a former waitress at Sanders' first business, Sanders Cafe, was one outlet for Sanders' sexual impulses. Claudia and Sanders married in 1949, two years after his divorce from Josephine and after an extended romance. Mrs. Sanders had began assisting the man known simply as "the Colonel," an honorary title he got from the Governor of Kentucky, to create a business that would become a fast-food empire even before they married in 1948. She met Mr. Sanders while working as a server at his first restaurant in Corbin, the Sanders Cafe, in the 1930s.
