"Peggy, of course, created the division system in the early 80s (although she denied it was her idea).   Her historical costuming was impeccable.  On a whim, she entered "Miss Rose Thompson" in the LASTcon T'ree art show.  It was awarded Best in Show by the art show judges!   Peggy had a Ph.D. in analytical chemistry and worked as a crime lab analyst for the New York State Police."

----Byron Connell

In order to show more about the Peggy Kennedy, many of these pictures are borrowed from three other sources:
The International Costumers Guild Gallery
The Fanac - Fan History Project
Costume-Con Visual Archive

For each picture the photographer is credited and a link to the source of the picture included.   If you want to explore costuming and fannish history (or even find pictures of yourself) these are great places to explore!
