Jill Meyers has won 8 world championships: four Venice Cups, one mixed team, one McConnell, and two women’s pairs. She currently ranks 10th on the WBF’s women’s all-time list. She has won 17 NABC+ titles and finished 2nd an additional 23 times. She was inducted into the ACBL Hall of Fame in 2014.
Jill only plays bridge part-time, because she has a career in Hollywood: she is the music supervisor on movies and TV shows including The Voice and was formerly Vice President of Music at Tri-Star Pictures.
