Janie Louise Chandler was born on Oct. 27, 1958, in Boswell, Okla., to Carl and Orpha Chandler. The third of six Chandler children, Janie learned how to work hard at an early age while helping with household, farming and ranching chores. She was even coined “Chicken Chandler” at one point by her friends.
