Margaret Swanson, a Somerville resident, will compete on the popular trivia show Jeopardy Thursday night, according to the show.
Introducing herself in a short video on the game show's website, Swanson says, "Hey Somerville, I'm Margaret Swanson. Grab everyone from your triple decker and come watch me on Jeopardy."
She joins a growing list of Somerville residents who have competed on the show recently.
In October of 2011, Joon Pahk, a physics instructor at Harvard, won over $200,000 in a seven-game winning streak on the show.
Then, in February, Emily Kelly, a university librarian, nearly pulled off a win on the show, but fell in the Final Jeopardy round of play.
