Yankee Baseball player Joe DiMaggio 1914 - 1999
Jan. 1, 1947 - New York, NY, U.S. - The son of a fisherman, JOE DIMAGGIO is considered one of the most memorable baseball players of all time. For many of the fans who saw him play, he epitomizes grace and excellence. His play, his demeanor and his short marriage to Marilyn Monroe helped make him one of the icons of American pop culture. DiMaggio played for the New York Yankees from 1936 until 1951. Babe Ruth started the tradition of winning, but DiMaggio, with his high standards and leadership, took his New York Yankees team to the World Series ten times, leading them to nine championships
