About Bill Russell
Bill Russell was named as a 2010 recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his contributions on the court as well as his outspoken advocacy for human rights. Russell is the former Boston Celtics' Captain who almost single handedly redefined the game of basketball. Russell led the Celtics to a virtually unparalleled string of 11 championships in 13 years and was named the NBA's Most Valuable Player 5 times. The first African American to coach the NBA - in fact he was the first to coach a major sport at the professional level in the U.S - Russell is also an impassioned advocate of human rights.
