Norbert Schemansky


This is Norbert "Norb" Schemansky (1924-2016) who was a three time World Champion and 
won medals in four successive Olympics from 1948 to 1960.  He set a new world record at age 
38 and was referred to by his Soviet opponents as a great competitor and friend.  He was fired 
from a job for taking off too much time to compete.  Those were different days!
