In the early 1990s, Nancy Kerrigan was one of the world’s most famous figure skaters. The Massachusetts native got her start in skating at age six. By the time she was 22, Kerrigan had won a bronze medal in the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville, and in 1993, she won the United States Championship. Of course, Nancy Kerrigan appearances will always be linked to the name of rival skater Tonya Harding, whose ex-husband hired a man to club Kerrigan in the knee one month prior to the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer. Kerrigan still managed to compete and win a silver medal as the runner-up to Oksana Baiul. Kerrigan retired shortly thereafter but remained in the public eye through television and movie appearances.
