Detailed and thoroughly researched, this bio of the first African American player (and first AA woman) to win a tennis grand slam event. Despite a violent and deprived childhood, Althea stormed into sports in both tennis 🎾 and later ⛳️. But back then-1950s-she had race and gender bias at her back😔, unlike women‘s tennis of 1980 to present.
