Evanston Jeopardy Champ Competing Again This Week

Let’s try this in the form of a Jeopardy question.

“An Evanston Jeopardy champion who is going to be back on the show Thursday.”

Who is Claudia Perry?

Correct.

Perry, who has won more than $75,000 on the quiz show is participating in the show’s Battle of the Decades for 1990s champions this week. She’s slated for the Thursday show.

Each day this week, three 1990s champions will battle it out. The winner from each of the five games will advance.

In an interview on the Jeopardy website, Perry says she used her winnings to buy a house and travel to Antarctica for her 50th birthday. You can watch her full interview above.
