Writer/Author
Donna Wilkinson authored Story #18
Uncharted Territory: Pioneering Women's Football

"There's nothing typical about a woman who chooses her armor for battle, puts on her helmet and shoulder pads, and hears the click-clack, click-clack of cleats as she walks through the tunnel into the hallowed grounds of a football stadium. She makes her way to the field and prepares for battle. This one has accepted a different kind of mission. She will fling her body around with reckless abandon putting her life and limb on the line to pursue a passion deep within her. She is doing something she was told she could never do, having an experience previously exclusive to men.

"Donna is a two time Gold Medal winner on TEAM USA for Women's Football. Her story is about her journey of desire, breaking old paradigms and stepping into a new platform. So powerful!"
