Shirley Lewis Povich (July 15, 1905 - June 4, 1998) was an American sports columnist and reporter for The Washington Post. Povich joined the Post as a reporter in 1923 while a Georgetown University law student, and in 1925 was named Editor of Sports. In 1933, he became a sports columnist, a responsibility that continued until his death, with only one interruption as a war correspondent for The Washington Post in the Pacific Theater. Following World War II, he returned to his sports desk. He was the sports editor for the Post for forty-one years. He celebrated his retirement in 1973, but continued to write more than 500 pieces and cover the World Series. At the time of his death, he was one of few working writers who had covered Babe Ruth. His final column was in the Post the day after his death at age 92. Povich is the author of The Washington Senators and All These Mornings. Povich brings to life, through lively stories, such all-time greats as Ty Cobb, Jack Dempsey, Walter Johnson, Connie Mack, and Joe DiMaggio. We learn the story behind Babe Ruth's famous "called shot" home run in the 1932 World Series. We hear from Clark Calvin Griffith the secrets of his famous "screwball" and "squeeze play". He was once included in the Who's Who in American Women!
