DENVER, NORTH CAROLINA: 'The Golden Bachelorette' on ABC is nearly here, after much anticipation. The first season of the show will include a retired North Carolina bank CEO. Twelve men in their prime are vying for "everlasting love" with leading lady Joan Vassos after the phenomenal success of 'The Golden Bachelor' last fall. One such man is Michael Stevens, from Denver.

Michael is a bright, kind, and creative person who enjoys learning new things. In his free time, he likes to read, watch movies, and visit the botanical gardens in Chicago. The participant, who is 65 years old and from the Lake Norman region, describes himself as a Swiftie and attended Lollapalooza three times when he was fifty. Michael is the sole competitor from North Carolina among the twenty-four men vying for the affection of the sixty-one-year-old school administrator and grandmother.
