Misty May-Treanor      

Three-Time Beach Volleyball Olympic Gold Medalist

With Three Olympic Gold Medals (Athens, ’04, Beijing, ’08 & London, ’12), combined with 109 career tournament victories, Misty May-Treanor is considered the greatest beach volleyball player in the history of the sport.

May-Treanor's performance in the 2012 Olympic Games in London, England captured the hearts of fans from all around the World. After many believed she couldn’t recover from a serious injury/surgery incurred from her appearance on TV’s Dancing with The Stars just three years prior, May-Treanor showed her resolve, work ethic, and commitment in retaining her standing as the greatest athlete in her sport with her third consecutive Olympic Gold Medal in London.

Above and beyond May-Treanor’s achievements in her sport, she takes great personal pride in being an outstanding role model and making an impact with each opportunity she can. May-Treanor spreads goodwill through her work with Special Olympics, Make-A-Wish Foundation, and her own educational/clinic curriculum, as well as many other causes and initiatives important to her.

As one of the most respected major corporate brand spokespersons, May-Treanor enjoys impactful corporate brand partnerships with leading companies Nike, Wheaties, AT&T, Visa, Arnold/Oroweat/Brownberry Breads, Purina, Gatorade, Stouffers, OPI, Spalding, Teva Respiratory, Topps, Abreva and more.

May-Treanor has dominated every level of the sport of volleyball, both as an indoor volleyball Champion (two California State Championships at Newport Harbor High School, 1991-1995 and one NCAA Division 1 Championship at Long beach State, 1998) in addition to securing her position as the most decorated athlete in beach volleyball history.

Looking back, it’s no surprise that this Long Beach, CA native became a professional athlete. May-Treanor grew up playing beach volleyball at the Santa Monica Pier with her parents, 1968 volleyball Olympian, Butch May and Barbara May, a nationally ranked tennis player. In her adult life, May-Treanor is married to Major League Baseball catcher, Matt Treanor.
