American gymnast Mary Lou Retton captivated the nation with her spunky, personable performances at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. She became the first American woman to take gold in the individual all-around gymnastics competition with a stunning perfect ten on her final vault. A year after the Los Angeles games, Retton became the first gymnast inducted into the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame.
