Description:
Jenny Hoad is the widow of tennis great Lew Hoad, who died from leukemia in 1994. Hoad was a mis-understood man, seldom free of back pain and yet still managing to win two Wimbledon singles titles, three Wimbledon doubles, a French, Italian and Australian singles title and 17 of his 19 Davis Cup matches.
My Life with Lew is the story of Jenny and Lew's life together. They lived an amazing life and counted among their friends Sean Connery, Richard Burton and Ava Gardner. This is a love story, a travelogue and a detailed look at one of the world's best tennis players by the one person in the world who knew him best.
