  1. The correct answer is B. Peggy Fleming.

    Peggy Fleming is credited with bringing hope to figure skating after a tragic plane crash in 1961 that killed the entire U.S. Figure Skating team, including coaches and athletes. Her success in the sport, especially winning the gold medal at the 1968 Winter Olympics, helped to revitalize interest and support for figure skating in the United States during a very somber time.
