Biography

Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick is one of Survivor's great warriors, remembered above all for Survivor: Palau (Season 10), where her Ulong tribe lost challenge after challenge until she was the last member standing. That resilience made her an instant fan favorite.

She returned for Survivor: Guatemala (Season 11), where she reached the final two and finished runner-up, and later played on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains (Season 20). She made her fourth appearance on Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans, reaching the jury and placing tenth.

Across four appearances, Stephenie became a symbol of never giving up, the castaway who watched her whole original tribe fall and refused to break. Her return for the fiftieth season extended a Survivor career that began more than twenty years earlier.

Alliances fans have named

Survivor never names an alliance on screen. These names, and who counts as a member, are how the fan community records the game rather than an official record of it.
