Despite her small size and unorthodox windmill stroke, Janet Evans was a natural-born swimmer who was swimming laps at the age of two. In 1987, when she was 15 years old, Evans broke the world record in both the 400, 800m and the 1,500m freestyle. At the 1988 Seoul Olympics, Evans won her first gold medal in the 400m individual medley. Three days later, she won the 400m freestyle by more than two seconds and broke her own world record by 1.6 seconds. She added a third Olympic victory in the 800m freestyle. At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics Evans easily defended her title in the 800m by leading from start to finish, winning by eight meters; she also won the silver in the 400m.

Evans made one final appearance at the Olympics in 1996, but sites running the Olympic torch as the highlight of that Olympics over the actual competition. Considered the greatest female distance swimmer of all time, her world records for the 400, the 800, and the 1500 set in 1988 and 1989 have yet to be broken.

Janet has made her presence felt in and out of the pool as well. Since the end of her swimming career, Janet has made a name for herself as a commercial spokesperson, author, a reality television personality and a highly sought after speaker. She is a spokesperson for CanolaInfo and Johnson & Johnson baby.

In 2007, Janet published her first book, Total Swimming, which offers fitness programs, workouts and proper swim techniques to readers. In 2008, she was selected to star on NBC's reality show "Celebrity Circus" where the competition reached new heights as Janet attempted death-defying stunts in a head-to-head competition in front of a live studio audience.

Janet's career as a motivational speaker started at the young age of 16 and has turned her into one of the most requested keynotes in the country. Janet executes motivational speeches for top companies in varying fields including: technology, healthcare, real estate, telecommunications, apparel, banking, insurance, trade associations, packaged goods, non profits and many others.
