Peggy Cass Facts
She had an encyclopedic mind and appeared in many TV quiz shows in the 1960s.

She studied drama at HB Studio in Greenwich Village in New York City.

In a botched 1980 surgical procedure, Dr. Norman Scott, longtime physician for the New York Knicks (1978-2005), operated on Peggy's right knee instead of her injured left knee. After she noticed the mix-up in the recovery room, he had to wheel her back in and fix the other one. She sued him for malpractice and was awarded $460,000 in 1985.
