SUMMARY:The Many Lives of Tennis Legend Alice Marble
DESCRIPTION:Bank Square Books presents an author talk and signing with Madeleine Blais for the book\, Queen of the Court: The Many Lives of Tennis Legend Alice Marble. \nAbout the Book:\nIn August 1939\, Alice Marble graced the cover of Life magazine\, photographed by the famed Alfred Eisenstaedt. She was a glamorous worldwide celebrity\, having that year won singles\, women’s doubles\, and mixed doubles tennis titles at both Wimbledon and the US Open\, then an unprecedented feat. Yet today one of America’s greatest female athletes and most charismatic characters is largely forgotten. Queen of the Court places her back on center stage. \nBorn in 1913\, Marble grew up in San Francisco; her favorite sport\, baseball. Given a tennis racket at age 13\, she took to the sport immediately\, rising to the top with a powerful\, aggressive serve-and-volley style unseen in women’s tennis. A champion at the height of her fame in the late 1930s\, she also designed a clothing line in the off-season and sang as a performer in the Sert Room of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York to rave reviews. World War II derailed her amateur tennis career\, but her life off the court was\, if anything\, even more eventful. She wrote a series of short books about famous women. She turned professional and joined a pro tour during the War\, entertaining and inspiring soldiers and civilians alike. Ever glamorous and connected\, she had a part in the 1952 Tracy and Hepburn movie Pat and Mike\, and she played tennis with the likes of Charlie Chaplin\, Marlene Dietrich\, and her great friends\, Clark Gable and Carole Lombard. However\, perhaps her greatest legacy lies in her successful efforts\, working largely alone\, to persuade the all-white US Lawn Tennis Association to change its policy and allow African American star Althea Gibson to compete for the US championship in 1950\, thereby breaking tennis’s color barrier. \nIn two memoirs\, Marble also showed herself to be an at-times unreliable narrator of her own life\, which Madeleine Blais navigates skillfully\, especially Marble’s dramatic claims of having been a spy during World War II. In Queen of the Court\, the author of the bestselling In These Girls\, Hope Is a Muscle recaptures a glittering life story. \nAbout the Author:\nMadeleine Blais was a reporter for the Miami Herald for years and won a Pulitzer Prize before joining the faculty of the Department of Journalism at the University of Massachusetts. She is the author of To the New Owners\, In These Girls\, Hope Is a Muscle\, Uphill Walkers\, and The Heart Is an Instrument\, a collection of her journalism. She lives in Amherst\, Massachusetts. \nPre-Order Now BadgeQueen of the Court: The Many Lives of Tennis Legend Alice Marble By Madeleine Blais Cover Image\nQueen of the Court: The Many Lives of Tennis Legend Alice Marble (Hardcover)\nBy Madeleine Blais\n$30.00\nISBN: 9780802128324\nAvailability: Coming Soon – Available for Preorder Now\nPublished: Atlantic Monthly Press – August 15th\, 2023 \n
