Analyzing newspaper and magazine accounts, dozens of children's books, and a television movie, among other materials, Liberti and Smith highlight the range of ways meaning was constructed around Rudolph and her accomplishments on the track. Rather than a traditional biography, this book unpacks the collective memories we create and share about the Olympian. A close reading of the stories that are remembered and circulated about Rudolph not only underscore the athlete's agency but simultaneously minimize and even erase the ways in which racism and sexism impacted her life." -- Publisher's description. 600 10 $a Rudolph, Wilma, $d 1940-1994. 650 0 $a Runners (Sports) $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women runners $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Sports $x History. 650 0 $a Memory. 650 0 $a Collective memory. 700 1 $a Smith, Maureen Margaret, $d 1967- 830 0 $a Sports and entertainment. 941 $a 3 952 $l UXAX826 $d 20160628012855.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20160506011154.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20160105012633.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=507419E4B37A11E59CA8ADAFDAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b IODInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
