Famous Olympic Athlete Swimmers

The Olympic Games featured swimming during summer competitions beginning in 1896. Originally, athletes swam breaststroke or freestyle, and events took place in open water rather than in pools. The first backstroke Olympic races took place in 1904, and London held the first indoor pool competitions in 1908. Adolph Kiefer won gold for the 100 m backstroke in the 1936 Berlin games, and ended his Olympic career in Berlin because World War II resulted in the cancellation of the next two Olympiads. Instead, Kiefer trained sailors to swim during the war, and later introduced many improvements in swimming such as polyester swimsuits and turbulence reducing lane dividers. She won four gold medals during the 1996 games, then won two more gold medals in the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Dara Torres won her first Olympic medal at the 1984 Los Angeles games. Dara continued her Olympic career in Seoul, Barcelona, Sydney and Beijing, winning a silver medal in the 50 m sprint at the age of 41. He later translated his athletic successes to the screen, gaining fame as Tarzan. Esther Williams won national swim competitions, but never actually made it to the Olympics because World War II made Olympic competition impossible in 1940 and 1944. She became a famous swimming star nonetheless, gaining as much fame as Olympic champions of that era.
