Kaitlin Sandeno was one of the world’s greatest and most versatile swimmers.

In Golden Glow: How Kaitlin Sandeno Achieved Gold in the Pool and in Life, Dan D’Addona recounts Sandeno’s amazing swimming career, including her spectacular Olympic performances, and details the impact she has made in the world outside the pool.

Breaking into the Olympics at seventeen years old, she became the face of the team with her enthusiasm and bubbly personality.

She returned to the Olympics four years later to have one of the most dominating meets by an American woman in history.

But Sandeno’s legacy in the pool is nothing compared to how she has used her platform to help those around her.
