| | ESPN.com - The gold medalist who hit the silver screen |
 | | Before the 1936 competition in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Henie announced she would turn professional after the Olympics and the world championships that would be held one week later. |
 | | In her penultimate amateur performance, she was challenged by 15-year-old Cecilia Colledge of Britain, and held only a slim lead going into the free-skating competition. |
 | | Colledge, skating first, performed well, but Henie, skating 26th and last, skated even better, and won her third gold. |
