Ann Marie Wisdom (28 May 1934 – 14 October 2015) was an English rally driver, better known as a navigator.
Career
[edit | edit source]During the late 1950s and early 1960s, she was well known as a navigator for Pat Moss, the sister of Sir Stirling Moss. Their partnership ensured them to compete at the same level as the men.[1] In 1962, she ended her rally career in order to start a family, marrying the gentleman rally driver, Peter Riley. Pat bounced back, hiring erstwhile driver Pauline Mayman to navigate.[2]
Personal life
[edit | edit source]Wisdom was born in 1934,[3] the daughter and only child of professional racers Tommy Wisdom and Elsie Wisdom (née Gleed).
In 1962, shortly after retiring, she married rally driver Peter Riley in Worthing[4] and remained married until her death on October 14, 2015, exactly seven years after the death of Pat Moss. Peter died just under a year later, in July 2016.
During their marriage, Ann and Peter had two children, Tim and Jenny.[5]
Ann Wisdom died on 14 October 2015, at the age of 81.[1][6]
