Marvelous Mabel was a figure skater. While little is known of the first part of her life, we do know it was hard. She had a desire to learn to ice skate, but many doors were closed to her because she was not born white. But this little girl never gave up! She became one of the first black women ever inducted into multiple skating Hall of Fame’s because her love of the sport knew no bounds. When the doors closed on her competing, she became a coach. She coached anyone because everyone should have opportunities.
