Cathy Rigby

Cathy Rigby hooked many Americans on gymnastics with her performances in the 1968 and 1972 Olympics. The happily married (to her second husband) grandma was nominated for a Tony Award for her Broadway role as Peter Pan – a role she continues to do on tour today. Here the still-flexible 59-year-old visits the Empire State Building last December to celebrate the opening week of “Cathy Rigby Is Peter Pan.”
