In her memoir, she takes us behind the scenes of the pro tennis tour, through her five years as the top-ranked woman in the world, her twenty Wimbledon championships, her thirty-nine grand-slam titles, and her watershed defeat of Bobby Riggs in the famous ‘Battle of the Sexes.’ With her ever-present candor, King also describes the high personal price of public greatness. Listeners see how she struggled to live authentically and the challenges she grappled with beneath the mask of fame, including entrenched sexism, an eating disorder, and struggles with her sexual identity until her ‘outing’ by a former lover led her to embrace her true self. 600 10 $a King, Billie Jean. 650 0 $a Tennis players $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women tennis players $v Biography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 4 $a Audiobooks. 655 4 $a Biography. 700 1 $a Howard, Johnette. 700 1 $a Vollers, Maryanne. 941 $a 3 945 $a cdab 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20220303011010.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20211021010752.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20211020011431.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2AB60152316B11ECA09B3CB252ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
