    Professional Tennis Player. Raised in Los Angeles, she studied Economics at Rollins College (later earning her MA from Columbia University) and was introduced to tennis on the public courts. She made her initial mark with a runner-up finish to Sarah Palfrey Cooke at the US Open Women's Singles in 1941 (the first of six consecutive Finals appearances), and captured the championship four-times (1942 to 1944 and 1946). During 1946 in her only appearance at Wimbledon, she reigned champion while earning the cover of Time Magazine on September 2nd of that year. After turning professional, she toured the country with Gussie Moran, Bobby Riggs and Jack Kramer. Following her tennis career, she remained active in the sport as an instructor and was elected to the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 1965. She died of complications from Parkinson's disease.
