Here’s tonight’s Final Jeopardy answer and question for Tuesday, January 24, 2017:
Final Jeopardy! category: MEDALS & DECORATIONS
Final Jeopardy! clue/answer: Her husband won in 1927; in 1934 she was the 1st woman to win the Natl. Geog. Society’s Hubbard Medal for exploration
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Loren Lee Chen, a basketball podcaster from West Newton, Massachusetts
Derek Anderson, an attorney from Falls Church, Virginia
Sean Harrington, an engineer from Houston, Texas (1-day total: $9,200)
—
In 1934, Anne Morrow Lindbergh received the Hubbard Medal for her work as a radio operator and co-pilot to her husband on a pair of flights in 1931 and 1933, a trek that saw them explore five continents.
Prior to the US entry into World War II, though, Anne and her husband fell out of favor with many Americans, as Charles was seen as a pacifist Nazi sympathizer, as part of the non-interventionist group known as “America First”. Many of his speeches given under that “America First” banner before America entered World War II were regarded as anti-Semitic.
The timing of Jeopardy! talking about someone associated with the previous “America First” group? Perfect.
