Amy Schneider (born May 29, 1979) is an American writer and game show contestant.[4] Winning 40 consecutive games on the quiz show Jeopardy! from November 2021 to January 2022 and the November 2022 Tournament of Champions, she holds the second-longest win streak in the program's history, behind only Ken Jennings (74 games), who hosted the show as she competed. She is the most successful woman and most successful transgender contestant ever to compete on the show, in terms of both the length of her streak and her $1.6 million in winnings.

Schneider is known for her skill in the Final Jeopardy! round,[5] having responded correctly 30 out of 41 times in her run. She lives in Oakland, California.[6] Across all American game shows, she is the ninth-highest-earning contestant of all time.
