"Marilyn K. Johnson" was an American Contract bridge/bridge player from Houston, Texas. She won three world championships, one at women pairs and two at women teams, all in partnership with Mary Jane Farell. Farell and Johnson also won the North American von Zedtwitz Life Master Pairs in 1978, which no other pair of women has done (1930 to 2014).

Johnson majored in chemistry at Wellesley College and worked 33 years for Shell Oil.

His obituaries and feature stories about the slain soldiers of the Iraq War are valuable as history, sociology, literature, and journalism.

I recommend reading them in private.
