Fanny "Bobbie" Rosenfeld (December 28, 1904 – November 14, 1969)[1] was a Canadian athlete, who won a gold medal for the 100-metre relay and a silver medal for the 100-metre at the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam. She was a star at basketball, hockey, softball, and tennis; and was called Bobbie for her "bobbed" haircut.[2] In 1949, named Rosenfeld the "Canadian woman athlete of the half-century."[3] The Bobbie Rosenfeld Award is named in her honour. In 1996, she was inducted into the Ontario Sports Hall of Fame.[4]
