Vanna White has been turning the letters on TV's "Wheel of Fortune" since 1982..
But viewers of the show know that Vanna is much more than just a letter turner.
Soon after joining the show, she rose to nearly the prominence of host, Pat Sajak.
I met Vanna White in 1987. She had written a memoir called "Vanna Speaks," and I interviewed her at the convention of the American Booksellers Association.
