Preface
he Scribner Encyclopedia of American Lives (SEAL) Sports Figures set is published
T
in two alphabetically arranged volumes containing the biographies of 614 notable
figures in the history of American sports. Biographies include family background,
formative influences, and achievements outside the realm of sport as well as the
significance of subjects’ athletic accomplishments. It is the first in a projected series
of SEAL thematic volumes dedicated to discrete topics in United States history.
We have followed the successful format of previous SEAL volumes. Entries are
headed by an opening paragraph that highlights some of the subject’s most important
achievements and are accompanied by a photograph of the subject. Articles are signed
by their authors and the back matter in Volume 2 identifies authors by institutional
or occupational affiliation in addition to listing all entries by sport or category.
Many of the 205 academics, journalists, and archivists who have written biographies in these two volumes have previously written for SEAL and, before that, for
the Dictionary of American Biography, also published by Scribners. Contributors include authors who have written full-length biographies of their subjects, sports reporters, and historians, as well as present and former staff members of sports halls
of fame. We are gratified that many authors who have worked with us in the past
have chosen to stay on board for this project; this Scribner endeavor, however, is an
entirely new venture with all entries written specifically for the Sports Figures volumes.
In addition to thorough reviews of source material, authors have often interviewed
their subjects and subjects’ family members. Both the Dictionary of American Biography and previous SEAL volumes limited entries to notable Americans who were
deceased. SEAL Sports Figures comprises both the living and the dead, both active
and retired athletes, media personalities, coaches, and administrators who have contributed to the American sports mosaic.
Choosing approximately 600 subjects from the entire history of American sports
for inclusion was a challenge met, but we are aware that thoughtful readers might
suggest additional significant figures left beyond the covers of our two volumes.
Weighing the relative merits of figures from different sports is more difficult than
comparing figures in the same sport, which itself is often cause for controversy, as
evidenced by long-standing heated debates about elections to the various halls of
fame. SEAL’s biographical focus is American, but also included are athletes of other
nationalities, exemplified by Sammy Sosa and Bobby Orr, who played for American
teams. Although there are many entries of amateur sports figures, we have concentrated on professional athletes, who perhaps best provide a national perspective to

these volumes. Statistical rankings were important to our selection process, but we
also sought biographies that told a story or illuminated less-known aspects of sports
history. We have conferred with numerous experts and also received suggestions from
a wide sampling of fans. The final responsibility for selection, however, rests entirely
with the editors.
After the Civil War the American sporting scene, previously unorganized, was
shaped by the increase of leisure time, the growth of cities, and entrepreneurs who
pursued opportunities for profit in spectator sports. Although there are many biographies of nineteenth-century sports personalities, such as heavyweight champion
John L. Sullivan and baseball pioneer Albert Spalding, twentieth-century figures dominate these two volumes. With the advent of radio and increased press coverage, America embraced athletes as never before during the 1920s, the era dubbed the Golden
Age of sports. Athletes from different economic strata and ethnic backgrounds were
honored. Excluded from male sporting preserves in the nineteenth century, increasing
numbers of women athletes gained prominence. Color barriers remained rigid, but
sports in the African-American community flourished. Many Americans began to
read the sports page before the front page. By the end of the twentieth century, with
television a prime player, spectator sports had become a national obsession or, for the
less passionate, at least a respite from the concerns of the evening news.
We have represented sports from auto racing to wrestling. Many of the athletes
chosen would be on anyone’s list. Among the most noteworthy entries are: in baseball,
Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, and Jackie Robinson; auto racing,
Bill France, Sr., and Richard Petty; basketball, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson,
Larry Bird, John Wooden, and Michael Jordan; golf, Ben Hogan and Babe Didrikson
Zaharias; football, Jim Thorpe, Walter Payton, and Vince Lombardi; swimming,
Johnny Weissmuller and Mark Spitz; tennis, Martina Navratilova and Pete Sampras;
hockey, Wayne Gretzky and Gordie Howe; track, Jesse Owens and Wilma Rudolph;
and boxing, Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey, and Muhammad Ali.
Others celebrated are Junior Johnson, moonshine runner who became a race car
legend; peerless players Shoeless Joe Jackson and Pete Rose, both banned from baseball; pitcher Lefty Gomez, nicknamed “El Goofy,” who stopped a World Series game
to watch a plane fly over Yankee Stadium; Lynette Woodard, first woman to play for
the Harlem Globetrotters; Tiger Woods, all-time top money winning golfer; Dick
Fosbury, whose “Fosbury flop” revolutionized high jump technique; and Trudy
Ederle, first woman to swim the English Channel, in the process setting a new world
record for women and men. As one life borders the next in these pages, we hope
readers will be enticed to review entries across the range of American sports history.
There are many to acknowledge in an undertaking of this dimension. At the heart
of these volumes are dedicated photo researchers and copy editors and hundreds of
talented writers. Richard H. Gentile, a valued colleague from the inception of this
project, provided insight and expert guidance on research materials. Scribner staff
members Anthony Aiello and Kelly Baiseley were superb editorial assistants. We
have benefited immensely from the resourcefulness of Sarah Feehan and Jan Klisz,
project editors at Scribners, who kept us on track. And we are especially indebted to
Timothy J. DeWerff, Associate Publisher, the guiding spirit of SEAL, for his patience,
good cheer, professional judgment, and friendship.
