Jack Roosevelt Robinson was born in Cairo, Georgia in 1919. He was born into a family of Sharecroppers, but his mother Mallie Robinson single-handedly raised Jackie and his other siblings. From his humble beginnings he grew into the first Baseball player to break into Major League Baseball and to break the color barrier that segregated the sport of Baseball for 50 years. At UCLA, Jackie Robinson was the first athlete to win Varsity Letters in four sports: baseball, basketball, football and track.
