Peggy Sutherlin

Peggy Sutherlin née Berry (born 1937) is an American bridge player from Dallas, Texas.[1]

Sutherlin earned a B.A. from San Francisco State University and worked as an airline flight attendant. "When I applied for the job, I told them I wanted to be a stewardess so I could go to bridge tournaments. The plan worked! I was a stewardess for 37 years."[2] She has been a member of several contract bridge governing committees and the ACBL Board of Governors.[3]

Sutherlin was inducted by the ACBL Hall of Fame in 2014[3] as a recipient of the Blackwood Award for contributions to the game "without necessarily being world class player".
