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.

In the list of Olympians mentioned: the one who I have seen swim include
Gary Hall - both Sr and Jr
Anne Warner Cribbs
Debbie Meyer Webber
Graham Johnson (RSA)
Katrina Radke
Franz Mortensen (Denmark I think)
Suzie Jones-Roy
Shiela Taomina
Angel Martino
I have a list of people from the Worlds who said they competed in the Olympics. I think I better check it before releasing it.
