Jesse Owens

When I was in grade school, I did a report on Jesse Owens whom I have never forgotten, he is still a hero to me today.    Not only did Mr. Owens perform one of the greatest athletic feats in modern history but he was a gentleman of the highest caliber.   In 1936, he won 4 gold medals in Berlin winning the 100 meter, long jump, 200 meter sprint and the relay.
