Five months after emails attacking and mocking former pageant winners led to the ouster of the Miss America Organization’s leaders, women have taken the helm there.

Effective immediately, Regina Hopper and Marjorie Vincent-Tripp have been appointed to its highest ranks, the Miss America Organization and Foundation announced on Thursday.

Ms. Hopper, who was Miss Arkansas 1983 and a correspondent for CBS News, was named chief executive and president of the Miss America Organization — replacing both Sam Haskell, the former chief executive, and Josh Randle, the former president.

Ms. Vincent-Tripp, Miss America 1991 and a current assistant attorney general in Florida, was named chairwoman of the Miss America Foundation’s board of trustees, replacing Lanny Griffith.
