A teen model with Orangeburg ties is scheduled to appear on an all-new episode of The CW network's "One Tree Hill" at 8 p.m. Monday, Oct. 5.

Courtney Tabor, granddaughter of James and Rebecca Abraham of Orangeburg and Herbert and Marlene Tabor of Detroit, has appeared in numerous fashion advertising campaigns, including those for Belk, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Macy's and more. The 19-year-old has been a model for American fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi and actress Kristin Davis' collection, which is sold at Belk. Tabor was also featured in a six-page fashion layout for the January/February 2009 publication of Charlotte Living magazine.

Rebecca Abraham said her granddaughter is represented by Directions USA Model Agency in Greensboro, N.C., and was a competition dancer with BB Dance Productions in Charlotte for years. Tabor, a sophomore global fashion retailing and marketing major at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, has also been a Charlotte Hornets cheerleader.

Tabor, who was born in Atlanta, attended preschool and kindergarten at Felton Laboratory School in Orangeburg, her grandmother said. She graduated from high school in Charlotte and has been modeling since she was a young child.

Abraham said modeling is in Tabor's blood. Tabor's mother is Dee Dee Abraham Tabor Wilson, a former model and Orangeburg native who appeared in national advertising campaigns and on shows such as "Miami Vice."
