Brief Description

Sue Sally dreamed of joining a sport that was reserved for men only. With no money, no predecessor and no path to follow, she repeatedly broke down barriers and shattered glass ceilings, blazing a trail that would impact the future of her greatest passion, polo. Given her first polo mallet in the 1940s, Sue Sally played polo when and where she was allowed, at times disguised as a man. She was a polo pioneer, campaigning for more than 20 years to be included in the sport's governing body, the United States Polo Association (USPA), when women polo players weren't permitted. A do-it-yourselfer from a very young age, Sue Sally had a physical hand in everything she did. "Can't" was not a word allowed in her dictionary. With a passion for polo that guided and sustained her throughout her life, she lived incredible highs and debilitating lows. Through wealth, poverty, joy, heartbreak, discipline, sacrifice and hard work, Sue Sally Hale became Polo's Grande Dame. This is an inspirational story about living an unthinkable dream. More than 175 photographs!
