Life in Afghanistan
Zohra Daoud lived a high class life in Afghanistan. Her Father was Afghanistan’s U.S. educated surgeon and her mother came from a well-recognized family. She was raised around her personal cooks and maids in high-society Kabul. She was privileged, therefore she had no need to enter the pageant. As the pageant gained fame, she gained interest and entered the Miss Universe pageant. In Kabul, she made an impression on Television executives and radio hosts. When she went back to Afghanistan, she became a host of a TV show. It was a quiz show in which participants competed against each other on their knowledge of recent occasions. After her crowning at the age of 18, Zohra Daoud married Mohammad Daoud, a trained commercial.

Zohra Daoud as Miss Afghanistan
On December 1972, Zohra Daoud was crowned as Miss Afghanistan. Sponsored by Afghan Life Magazine, Daoud attracted approximately 100 contestants around the age of 20, majority of them from Kabul. Daoud saw the pageant as an opportunity to promote high education and academic achievement for young afghan girls. Today, Zohra Daoud remains as the one and only Miss Afghanistan.

Early life in United States
In 1979, the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. A year later, Zohra Daoud, her husband Mohammad Daoud, along with their infant, fled to Germany. In 1980, she arrived at Virginia's Norfolk International Airport, where she realized that her life as a high class citizen was over. With a degree in French literature from Kabul University, Zohra Daoud managed to get a job in a French bakery in Richmond. When she arrived at the job, she was handed a mop and sent to the kitchen to sweep the floors. Despite being a trained commercial pilot, Zohra Daoud’s husband, Mohammad Daoud, worked at McDonald's, and then as a taxi driver. Zohra and Mohammad Daoud later began taking English classes, tutorial and exams in order to improve their English language. After all the hard work, Mohammad Daoud landed a job as a pilot for United Airlines. With their increase in income, Mohammad and Zohra Daoud began getting the rest of their family members into United States, as well as settling in their California home.
