A Skating Life

The dazzling smile, the signature haircut, the staple spin. Dorothy Hamill grew up on the ice, working towards the dream she was to accomplish by age 19: winning Olympic gold in figure skating. But life was not what it seemed. Dorothy faced a painful inner struggle from the time she was a young girl: depression. In this deeply moving memoir, Hamill opens up for the first time about love, family courage and what it means to truly win both on and off the ice.
