Cathy Rigby – 68 Years Old

Cathleen Roxanne Rigby known as Cathy Rigby, born on December 12, 1952, in Long Beach, California, is an actress, speaker, and former artistic gymnast. Cathy Rigby takes credit for holding the highest score for American gymnasts during the 1968 Summer Olympics, which contributed to bringing the sport forward to the masses and mainstream. She was the U.S. National Champion in 1970 and 1972 and became the first American woman to medal at the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships.

When the former gymnast retired from the sport in 1978 shortly after the Olympics, she decided to earn her first stage credit by starring as Peter Pan in a stage production of the novel and film. She eventually reprised the role in a 2018 stage production. Despite her age, she has not shown any signs of retiring any time soon! She also became a public speaker on eating disorders, which she struggled with and overcame.
