GEORGINA BLOOMBERG

Georgina Bloomberg is both a top equestrian and a philanthropist, putting her well-known name to work protecting animals and aiding equestrians in need. Daughter of Bloomberg founder Michael Bloomberg, she began riding at age six, choosing to follow the equitation path exclusively as she quickly started winning top prizes. Bloomberg won the 2001 USET Talent Derby, won team gold at the North American Young Rider’s Championships in 2002 and individually in 2003, won the USET Maxine Beard Award in 2004, and made her debut at the FEI World Cup Final in 2005. In 2009, Bloomberg won the eighth round of the WEF Challenge Cup and won round one of the WEF Challenge Cup Series in 2010 before winning the Bluegrass Festival Grand Prix and placing top in 2012 and 2013 throughout Europe and America. More international competition and success followed in 2014 before a third-place win at the Grand Prix at the Longines L.A. Masters and the National Horse Show. She helped the U.S. claim the team bronze at the 2015 Pan American Games. In 2017, she won a CSI3* riding Manadie II H and then placed third in North Salem and at the Washington International Horse Show aboard Calista.
