Olympian Swimmer Dara Torres

by Olympian Swimmer Dara Torres in Charity Chat

Five-time Olympic swimmer, mother, model and TV personality Dara Torres was greeted by young patients at the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital where the kids presented her with Olympic-style paper medals they had created earlier in the day. Part of the meet and greet included a Q&A session, but Dara turned the tables on the children by asking them Olympic trivia. She also made stops to private rooms to meet with children unable to attend the event. Pictured: Dara Torres with patient Gabrielle Cook (far right) and friends.
