University Book Store’s Kathy Wright Wins Big on Jeopardy!

This is … wait for it…

Via Slog: Congrats to Kathy Wright, a bookseller for University Book Store, who won $38,398 on Jeopardy! last night. The Final Jeopardy gods were good, offering up a literature answer in the last round. (Read about it here.) Wright will try to add to her grand total on tonight’s episode of Jeopardy at 7:30 on KOMO.

Now, our own bit of trivia: How much did Seattle native Ken Jennings ultimately win on Jeopardy? First person to respond correctly in the comments below wins a free copy of the July issue of Seattle Met.

Hoping Kathy Wright can help me sell a large selection of medical books from the 1800's in good condition.
