Katie Beth May (March 16, 1981 – February 4, 2016) was an American model and businesswoman. Dubbed "The Queen of Snapchat", May was known as a social media star and brand ambassador before her death of a stroke at age 34.
May was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Janet May and Joseph May, both teachers. She was the youngest of four, with two sisters and a brother. May described her upbringing as "very traditional working-American", with a "real emphasis in my house on education, primarily the arts and history". She grew up in suburban Pleasant Hills, Pennsylvania and attended Thomas Jefferson High School in Jefferson Hills, where she was a cheerleader.
From 1999 to 2003, May attended Ohio University, where she earned a bachelor of science degree in retail merchandising.
In 2003, May, who had "dreams and wishes ... far from Pittsburgh" moved to Los Angeles. She worked in public relations at Dolce & Gabbana prior to launching high-end denim line SINR Denim with boyfriend Alex Maimon. May then "broke out on her own", co-founding May-Levy PR and Marketing, which operated from 2008 to 2012. Subsequently, she served as vice president of strategic marketing at Gen Arts, an arts incubator based in Los Angeles. Per May, "Then that company was sold and I was unemployed without a penny to my name."
