Miraflora Naturals
Welcome to our special Olympics series, where we interview athletes who have climbed to the top of their field. Our guest today is alpine ski racer Susie Corrock Luby, bronze medalist in the 1972 downhill at the Sopporo Games and member of the Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame. She was a dark horse at the event, and her medal ended the U.S. Ski Team’s eight-year losing streak. She joins us from her home in Spokane, Wash., to talk about the Olympics then and now, and her passion for an unlikely sport—curling.
