Owens Still Man on Move from humble roots to Olympic glory
Owens grew up in Oakville Alabama as one of nine children of a sharecropper. He faced poverty and segregation, picked cotton from age seven, and fled to Cleveland with a scholarship to Ohio State. After failing to make the 1932 team, he rose to fame in 1935, equalling the world 100 yard dash record and later winning four golds in Berlin.
