In 1996, Shannon Miller became the most decorated Olympic gymnast in United States history with 7 Olympic medals. (2 gold, 2 silver, 3 bronze) She is the only female athlete inducted into the US Olympic Hall of Fame – Twice! (Individual (2006) and Team (2008)).
Shannon has won an astounding 59 International and 49 National competition medals. Over half of these have been gold. She is the first US gymnast to win 2 World All-Around Titles. Her tally of five medals (2 silver, 3 bronze) at the 1992 Olympics was the most medals won by a US athlete in any sport. At the ’96 Games, she led the “Magnificent Seven” to the US Women’s first ever Team Gold and for the first time for any American gymnast, she captured Gold on the Balance Beam.
After retiring from Olympic competition, Shannon received her undergraduate degrees in marketing and entrepreneurship from the University of Houston and her law degree from Boston College.
