==Biography==
{{4TeamBracket-Tennis5
Liesel was born into the wealthy [[Pritzker family]]. She is one of twelve surviving grandchildren of patriarch Abram Nicholas Pritzker, a financier and industrialist who died in [[1986]]. Her uncle, Jay Pritzker, is the founder of the [[Hyatt Hotel]] chain, and owned [[Braniff]] Airlines from 1983-1988. The family controls the [[TransUnion]] Credit Bureau and the [[Royal Caribbean]] Cruise Lines. The Pritzker family has been near the top of [[Forbes]] magazine's "America's Richest Families" list since the magazine began in [[1982]]. Liesel uses the stage name "Matthews" after her brother, Matthew, after a battle between her parents regarding whether she should be [[Credit (creative arts)|credited]] as Liesel Pritzker-Bagley (Bagley being her step-father's name) or simply Liesel Pritzker.
