Lee Calvert is a vibrant 100-year-old woman from Southern California. A former actress, she later worked in international dubbing for classic TV shows like The Brady Bunch and I Love Lucy, which enabled her to travel and compete in European badminton tournaments. Her dedication to the sport earned her over 200 medals and induction into the USA Badminton Hall of Fame. After losing her home and treasured medals in the recent Palisades wildfires, she was thrilled to have her Huntsman World Senior Games awards reinstated.
Following a knee replacement, Lee transitioned to table tennis, which she still plays several times a week with her son. An active community member, she received the “Arnie Wishnick” award for volunteerism and was involved with PAPA (Palisades Americanism Parade Association) and the Optimist Club. Lee’s zest for life shines through her 10 nightly push-ups, love of dancing, and unwavering spirit—proving age is just a number.
