Title: Mark Leinwand Info
Post by: MarkBarrett on June 14, 2011, 03:11:40 PM
Could anyone help with information, please, about Mark Leinwand?  I am trying to get his bio page in the Jeopardy! Archive as accurate as possible: http://www.j-archive.com/showplayer.php?player_id=7378

I did not know which YouTube videos to watch to try to figure out his Tic-Tac-Dough regular play winnings or TOC winnings.

While searching around the web I saw mentions about other game shows on which he appeared.  Anyone know amounts he won on those?

Thanks

I do remember him being one of the first big winners on 'Press Your Luck' in 1983 (Thank you, USA Network game show reruns).  He won over $24,000 in cash & prizes, but lost on the next show.
