Pat Summitt
Pat Summitt became head coach of the women’s basketball team at Tennessee in 1974; since then, she has won more national championships than any coach, man or woman, since John Wooden. In the 1976 Olympics, as co-captain she led the U.S. women’s squad to a silver medal, and in the 1984 Olympics–this time as coach–her team brought home the gold medal. She is the author, with Sally Jenkins, of the bestselling Reach for the Summit. A native of Tennessee, she lives in Knoxville with her husband, R.B., and their son Tyler.
Sally Jenkins is the author of Men Will Be Boys and the cowriter of Pat Summitt’s first book, Reach for the Summit. A veteran sports reporter whose work has been nominated for the Pulitzer Prize, she has worked for the Washington Post, Sports Illustrated and Conde Nast’s Women’s Sports and Fitness.
