Congratulations to this year’s women’s gymnastics team gold medalists - TEAM USA! The National Archives remembers the Gold Medalists from 1996 in this photo with President Bill Clinton, First Lady Hillary, and Chelsea. Perhaps the Archives will soon hold a photo of this year’s gold medalists with President Obama, First Lady Michelle, and family?
A look back at the last US team to win gold in women’s gymnastics!
The National Archives holds Federal records, so we don’t have any pictures of this year’s gold-medal winning gymnasts (but if they visit the White House when they come home, we will eventually have those records). Instead, here’s a Presidential photograph from the William J. Clinton Presidential Library from 1996, the last time the American team won gold in women’s gymnastics: President Clinton, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and Chelsea Clinton pose for a photo with the U.S. Olympic Women’s Gymnastics Team in the Blue Room, August 7, 1996.

Who is your favorite gymnast of the 2012 Fab Five?

This picture is so ’90s, it hurts. As if the Clintons and the gymnasts weren’t enough, look at their shoes omg
Look at those horrible outfits. Those shoes are frightening.
OMG The Magnificent Seven with Bill Clinton!!!
lol 90s
I know the Fab Five are having their moment, but these girls will always be the very best representation of American...
The one girl who looks eerily like Paul Simon
Who’s missing in this picture? Is it Shannon Miller? WHAT DID YOU DO WITH SHANNON, BILL?
