Joy has been at Mizzou five years. Previously, she spent five years as a designer for the Sarasota Herald-Tribune. A 1996 graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Joy started her career as a designer for the Wichita (Kansas) Eagle.

Joy shares a birthday with actors Jimmy Smits, Tom Hanks and Fred Savage, musicians Courtney Love and John Tesh, former Court TV star O.J. Simpson and scientist Nicola Tesla.

Plus, today is National Sugar Cookie Day. Seriously.

Best wishes, Joy, for a joyous birthday!
