	Carol Heiss - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Carol Elizabeth Heiss Jenkins (born January 20, 1940 in New York, NY) is an American figure skater.
		Heiss first came to national prominence in 1951, when she was U.S. Novice Ladies' Champion at age 11.
		But her mother, Marie Heiss, was quite ill with cancer at the time, and before her death in October, 1956, she asked Carol to stay an amateur to win a gold medal for her.

	Carol Heiss, The Coach - Golden Skate Forums
		Carol Heiss won five World titles and the 1960 Olympic gold medal in women's figure skating, and for the past twenty-five years or so, she's been very actively involved in the sport as an elite coach in the Cleveland, Ohio area.
		Carol strikes me as someone who genuinely loves to teach skating and perhaps she just doesn't have that extra push in her to get her student to the top.
		Carol, on the other hand, was the first skater to push the techncial aspects of figure skating.

		Heiss Jenkins said that after the Squaw Valley Olympics, she had no choice but to go pro and make some money -- her father had $145 in the bank.
		But Heiss Jenkins said she only had four or five weeks left in her life to be eligible, and to stay in because she'd certainly be called to Worlds as an alternate.
		Heiss Jenkins added that the USFSA was so grateful to Kwiatkowski for earning three spots that year that they invited her to stay eligible for another year.

		An Olympic gold medal is the highlight of almost any athlete's career, but for Carol Heiss Jenkins a moment four years before her Squaw Valley triumph carries more importance.

		In 1978, when the owner of a new rink near Akron approached her, Heiss Jenkins returned to the sport, as a coach.

		They were a snow-and-ice carnival from an age that is past, when the athletes lived in hotels, all of the events were outdoors, and nothing was shown on American TV.
		Albright ended up winning the gold medal ahead of Heiss Jenkins, came home to a parade through Newton (''They made a skate and put it on the float"), and enrolled at Harvard Medical School without bothering to graduate from Radcliffe, since her pre-med work was done.
		Heiss Jenkins, who beat Albright at the world championships in Germany two weeks later, went on to win the 1960 gold medal, married Hayes two months later, and starred in ''Snow White and the Three Stooges."

		This is a family name that has been used often so when my first daughter was born I used it as a middle name.I thought it went great with Shailyne.I agree with the comment before this I wouldn't use it as a first name.
		If you think Carol(e) sounds strange for someone under the age of 40,try comparing it with a name like Dorothy or Sheila.It's not as old lady-ish as some people think.

		That's when she met Scott Hamilton, Kitty and Peter Carruthers, Michael Siebert, Judy Blumberg and Rosalynn Sumners, who were all headed for the 1984 Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia.
		There's kind of an Olympic history going on here, but the most recent involvement for this Pittsburgher, who is director of program development for Leadership Pittsburgh Inc., was as one of the Olympic torch runners in our region on Dec. 19, 2001.

		The songs aren't much to speak of and the 3 Stooges slapstick is not up to par; but still, it's amusing to watch.

		NOW...as to the DVD: 20th Century Fox Home Video did a great job with the transfer of the film to disc: the colours are vibrant, the image crisp, and the print free of artifacts.

		The film was conceived as a vehicle for Carol Heiss, the 1960 Olympic figure skating champion, but it was obvious that her limited acting would not carry the classic plot very far.
		Carol Heiss, a champion skater and 1960 Olympic Gold Medal winner (although no actress in the real sense), does a decent job in the title role, and Edson Stroll gives a good journeyman's performance as Quatro/Prince Charming.
		This is a beautifully filmed fairy tale with the added attraction of Carol Heiss' fabulous skating talent, and a delightful musical score.

		But trying it doesn't mean it will happen, Heiss Jenkins cautioned.

		Dorothy was not a graceful skater but was actually considered an athletic skater, but at the age of nineteen, she won the gold medal at the 1976 Olympics in Innsbruck in front of millions of television viewers.

	Amazon.ca: Snow White & Three Stooges: Video (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		I think the idea was probably to have "Snow White and the Three Stooges" do for the Three Stooges what the 1952 version of "Jack and the Beanstalk" did for Abbott and Costello, but this 1961 film does not come anywhere near that level of fun.
		The Stooges (Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Joe DeRita this late in the game) are pretty much supporting characters to Snow White, who is played by 1960 Olympic gold medalist skater Carol Heiss, in her one and only film.
		Obviously the hope was that Heiss, who had won six straight medals at the World Championships (1955-1960) before winning the gold medal at Squaw Valley, would turn out to be another Sonja Heine.
