Dorothy was the co-owner and operator of Kim Tours and Travel, which  provided sports travel packages for University of Southern California football and for the Rose Bowl for the past six decades.  Dorothy is an alumnus of USC and is a proud supporter of the Trojans, as she follows the Men of Troy to nearly every game, home and away.  Along with her late husband, Surl, the couple has been officially recognized as "The First Family" of the Hoop Historians.  In addition to being at hundreds of college football games, Dorothy has attended 32 Final Fours, 37 Super Bowls (1967, 1969-2005), and  51 Rose Bowl games starting in 1956 and not missing one from 1962 through 2011.  She also attended the Summer Olympic Games in 1984 and 1996.
