Gertrude Wilhelmsen

Bat-and-Ball Sports

Johanna Freda Gertrude Wilhelmsen, born Gertrude Stelling, lived from January 16, 1913 to March 19, 2005 and was an American track and field athlete and softball player. Her English Wikipedia article says she represented the United States at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, placing seventh in the women's javelin throw and eighth in the discus throw. Those results come from her track and field career, and the lead names softball only as one of her two sports. This entry is written from the lead section of the English Wikipedia article on Gertrude Wilhelmsen.
