Kathy Kusner Honored by USEF Legendary horsewoman Kathy Kusner was
honored with one of two U.S. Equestrian’s Lifetime Achievement Awards for 2021. Kus- ner, who now resides in Playa Vista, California, is most widely known for winning Olympic and Pan American Games medals for the U.S. in Show Jumping. It is her pioneering work to
promote women in equine sports, however, that is her greatest achievement. Kusner was one of the first women selected to the U.S. Equestrian Team (USET) to compete in an Olympic Games. She represented the U.S. in the 1964 Toyko Games, 1968 Mexico City Games and 1972 Munich Games where she was part of the Silver Medal team. She was part of the Gold Medal team at the 1963 Pan American Games in Sao Paolo and then the Silver Medal team at the 1967 Winnipeg Pan American Games. Outside of the Show Jumping world, Kusner
became the first female jockey licensed to ride races in the U.S. in 1968. Te license was issued only after Kusner filed, and won, a discrimi- nation lawsuit against the Maryland Racing Commission. Kusner also was the first female jockey to ride in the Maryland Hunt Cup. Kusner is the founder of the non-profit Hors- es in the Hood, which works with inner-city communities in Los Angeles, California, to in- troduce young people to horses.
