Description

JIM THORPE: THE WORLD'S GREATEST ATHLETE chronicles the sports superstar's remarkable life (1887-1953) — from his boyhood in Oklahoma and his gold-medal wins at the 1912 Summer Olympics to his subsequent fall from grace and his advocacy of American Indian rights and self-sufficiency. The one-hour biography recounts these events, and others, through in-depth interviews with Thorpe's surviving children, dramatic re-creations, and archival stills and film.
