Abstract
This is a poster project I completed for my Sport and Culture class here at Eastern Washington University. Before starting this assignment, I had never heard the name Babe Didrikson. After finishing the project, I can tell you that Babe Didrikson is one of the greatest athletes of all time. This poster goes over most of her major accomplishments, a little bit about her early life, and it dives into the cultural significance of Babe's life work. She was one of the fiercest competitors to have ever lived. Babe was a pioneer for women's sports and her dominance still echoes in the record books of the sports that she participated in. She played basketball, track and field, and golf.
