On Aug.16, 1960, Joe Kittinger made a jump from 102,800 feet. Of course, Joe Kittinger was in the service, and his jump was not done for personal fame or glory, but for research (Project Excelsior).

He jumped from 18 miles in July; the old guy doing mission control set the previous record of 19 miles in 1963. I remember that jump and the news about it in the midst of the space program.
You can find out as the Discovery Channel is airing it live.
