Dawn Fraser AO MBE (born 4 September 1937) is an Australian champion swimmer and former politician. She is one of only three swimmers to win the same Olympic event three times โ€“ in her case the 100 metres freestyle.Within Australia during her swimming career she was often known for her controversial behaviour and larrikin character as much as for her athletic ability. She ‘outgrew’ that reputation as evidenced by the many honours she has received since her competitive swimming career ended.
