Biography
Shannon Miller competed in TWO Olympic Games, earning 7 Olympic medals! (2 gold, 2 silver, 3 bronze). She is the only female athlete to be 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 back-to-back World All-Around Titles, with a total of 9 World medals. 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. Shannon remains a part of the gymnastics and Olympic communities as an analyst and commentator.
In January of 2011, Shannon was diagnosed with a rare form of ovarian cancer. She had the baseball-sized tumor removed successfully and followed up with an aggressive chemotherapy regimen.
Shannon is currently cancer-free and continues to be a strong advocate for early detection, awareness, research, and survivorship.
Shannon is the Founder and CEO of Salto Health, a company devoted to making the non-medical side of cancer care visible, understood, and supported. Salto Health helps patients identify their everyday needs and give loved ones a simple way to make a meaningful difference, so no one has to face cancer alone. Shannon is a mother of two, a cancer survivor, an author, and a sports analyst, but she will forever be remembered for her focus, determination, and as the leader of the Magnificent Seven!
