Biography of Dick Button
Dick Button, a former American figure skater, is a two-time Olympic champion in figure skating, a five-time world champion, and a television commentator.
Button was born and raised in Englewood, New Jersey. He started skating at an early age but didn't take training seriously until he was 12 years old when his father overheard someone saying that he would never become a good skater.
His father then sent Button to New York, where he began training with ice dance coach Joey Carroll. He trained with Carroll in Lake Placid during the summer and later switched to Gustav Lussi on Carroll's advice.
At the age of 16, Button won the U.S.
Championships
