Biography

Between 1965 and 1975 Doreen Wilber was the top woman archer in the United States. Participating in eight National Championships in that decade, she won four (1969, 1971, 1973-74), was second twice, and third once. Although she was primarily a target shooter, Wilber entered the 1967 National Field Archery Championship and won it in her only attempt. Internationally she also distinguished herself. She competed in the 1969 and 1971 World Championships, finishing both times. She also shot in several international invitationals, and her international record stood at four wins and three seconds in eight appearances.
