I am looking for a list of Olympian Masters and what Olympics and events they particpated in. If you have such a list or know where one is, please let me know. Individual anecdotes are OK too.
Background:
I want to write to "Splash" magazine and ask them to feature some of the people on such a list when they write about great swimmers. I'm tired of reading (and having my kids read) about so-and-so great swimmer, who got to the Olympics, did great, and now swimming is behind them (i.e. they don't swim anymore). On the "mission statement" of Splash, they give lip service to a lifelong involvement with swimming, but they never seem to come up with an example of such a person.

Isn't that part of the problem? There is no official site or link or listing?There are official sites and lists of USA Swimming Olympians. USA Swimming and the USOC both have well documented these lists.
As for alternates, I’m not looking for the “official site”; I’d love to have a link to ANY site, so I can update my links to swimming history.
