Biography

At Los Angeles in 1932, Judy Guinness was initially declared the winner of the final duel. She herself stated that the judge had wrongly decided twice in her favor, and that she had thus lost the bout against the Austrian [Ellen Preis]. The jury listened to her allegations and awarded the Gold Medal to Ellen Preis.

Judy Guinness was the daughter of the engineer, banker and politician Henry Seymour Guinness from the Irish brewing family. In 1934 she married the racing driver and son of an entrepreneur, Clifton Penn-Hughes. After he died in July 1939 in a plane crash in Folkestone, Guinness married John Henning in 1942.
