Mabel Fairbanks (November 14, 1915 – September 29, 2001) was an American figure skater and coach. She was inducted into the US Figure Skating Hall of Fame, as the first African-American, and the International Women's Sports Hall of Fame. == Early life == Of African-American and Seminole descent, Mabel Fairbanks was born on November 14, 1915 in Florida's Everglades. She had a sister, Pearl, who was younger by a year, and an elder brother. Fairbanks never met her father and was orphaned at the age of eight when her mother died. After staying with a teacher who treated her like a "maid," she joined her brother in New York but his wife did not accept her. A wealthy woman saw her sleeping on a park bench and offered her a job as a babysitter at a home overlooking Central Park.
