Tonya Harding – Born 1970

Tonya was the black sheep of her family; even at a young age, she recognized this when her interests gravitated toward all things athletic. Her chosen sport was figure skating, and she pursued this goal with passion as she plowed ahead toward the Winter Olympics of 1994.

An unfortunate and controversial moment at the championship caused her to leave the sport prematurely, but she doesn’t let it keep her down.  Wise investments and business dealings continue to support her in her retirement. She will not go under anytime soon.
