Biography
Frank Cumiskey was one of the greatest gymnasts this country has ever produced. He won 22 National Championships including five all-around titles. He competed on three Olympic teams – those of 1932, 1936 and 1948 – and surely would have been named to the Olympic teams during the war years. At the 1948 Olympics he was given the honor of accompanying the United States flag bearer, Ralph Craig, as part of an honor guard at the opening ceremonies. Cumiskey later became the leading American historian of gymnastics. He was amongst the first inductees to the USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame. |
