'Diana Nyad Speaks from her Heart' by Diana Nyad
In 1979, Diana Nyad stroked her way to the longest swim in history, for both men and women. The distance was 102.5 miles--from the island of Bimini to the Florida shore--and that incredible record still stands today. Diana Nyad was front page news throughout the Western world, the lead story for Walter Cronkite on the CBS Evening News and a frequent guest of The Tonight Show.
After a failed attempt due to weather in 2010, Diana Nyad is once again trying to swim the 103 miles between Cuba and Florida this August.
For ten years (1969-1979) Diana Nyad was the greatest long-distance swimmer in the world. She broke numerous world records, including the 50-year-old mark for circling Manhattan Island in 1975.
Diana was honored with her induction into the International Swimming Hall of Fame in 2003. In 1986, Diana Nyad was inducted into the National Women's Sports Hall of Fame.
Over the past twenty years, Diana Nyad has earned a reputation as a riveting public speaker. She combines her talent for dramatic story-telling with a natural sense of humor and a charismatic stage presence.
Diana Nyad is the author of Other Shores, Basic Training, and Boss of Me: The Keyshawn Johnson Story. She also writes frequently for The New York Times.
Diana Nyad is heard by over eight million people each week on National Public Radio. She is a columnist for All Things Considered and is the sports business reporter for the award-winning show Marketplace. Diana has twice won the "Miller Light National Journalism Award".
On television, Diana Nyad appears on the prestigious CBS News Sunday Morning program where she delivers thought-provoking commentary. Previously, Diana was the Senior Correspondent for Fox Sports News, investigating stories such as the use of performance enhancing drugs by athletes and reporting live from such sporting events as the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia, writing and producing her own stories.
From 1989-1992, Diana Nyad hosted her own show on CNBC, One on One with Diana Nyad where she interviewed the likes of Ed Bradley and Julia Child and where she garnered a reputation as a skilled and passionate interviewer.
While an announcer with ABC's Wide World of Sports, Diana Nyad covered three Olympic Games, the New York City Marathon, the Ironman Triathlon, and dozens of other events around the globe.
Diana Nyad is fluent in French, German, and Spanish. She never uses notes -- she speaks from her heart and her audiences are both riveted and inspired.
Prior to her Fox assignment, Diana Nyad was host of all foreign documentaries on the Outdoor Life Network, traveling to Africa for the series The Great Cats of the World. Capitalizing on her background as an adventurer extraordinaire, she swam with 100-ton Right whales in Patagonia and kayaked over 40-foot waterfalls in Borneo.
Diana Nyad is a board member of World T.E.A.M. Sports, an organization that puts able-bodied and disabled athletes together for unique sporting adventures around the world. In January of 1998, Diana and her teammates bicycled the 1,200 miles from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam--perhaps the biggest step toward full reconciliation since the war. The documentary film of that reconciliation ride Vietnam: Long Time Coming won the Emmy in 1998.
Diana Nyad is a Hall of Famer at both her college (Lake Forest College, where she graduated Phi Beta Kappa) and her high school (Pine Crest School).
