Today is the Greatest Day for Women in Sports – Until Tomorrow. The Story of Title IX and the Empowerment of Women in Sports

Christine Brennan is an award-winning national sports columnist for USA Today, a commentator for CNN, ABC News, PBS NewsHour and National Public Radio, and a best-selling author. Named one of the country’s top 10 sports columnists multiple times by the Associated Press Sports Editors, she has covered the last 21 Olympic Games, summer and winter.
