RENEE RICHARDS ----- RICHARD RASKIND

Richards was born on August 19, 1934, in New York City, named "Richard Raskind", and raised, as she put it, as "a nice Jewish boy" in Forest Hills, Queens

Richards attended Horace Mann School and excelled as the wide receiver for the football team, the pitcher for the baseball team, and on the tennis and swim teams. Her baseball skills even led to an invitation to join the New York Yankees, but she decided to focus on tennis. After high school Richards attended Yale University and was captain of the men's tennis team, and was considered by some to be one of the best college tennis players in the country .

During college Richards began dressing as a woman, which at the time was considered to be a perversion, with transsexualism classified as a form of insanity. Richards named her female persona "Renée", which is French for "reborn".

He/she sure sucked when she finally played tennis as a female pro.

Maybe it was the racquet.
