Remembering Arthur: Q&A with Jeanne Moutoussamy-Ashe

By Nicholas J. Walz | USTA.com

Arthur Ashe  |  Conscious leader, Humanitarian, Educator and Athlete

Arthur Ashe was a top ranked tennis player in the 1960s and 70s. Raised in the segregated South, he was the first African-American male tennis player to win a Grand Slam tournament. He was much more than an athlete though. His commitment to social justice, health and humanitarian issues left a mark on the world as indelible as his tennis was on the court. This site is dedicated to providing a unique multimedia resource for understanding and promoting the legacy and values embodied in the life and work of Arthur Ashe as a conscience leader, humanitarian, educator and athlete.
