The United States Olympic Hall of Fame is an honor roll of the top American Olympic athletes. The Hall of Fame was established by the United States Olympic Committee in 1979; the first members were inducted in 1983. Between 1992 and 2003, the Hall of Fame went dormant, with no induction of new members. In 2004, the honor was revived, and continued in 2005 when the 'Class of 2006' was selected. The current process for selecting inductees is two-staged. Fifteen finalists are selected by a nominating committee consisting of athletes, members of the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame, historians and USOC representatives. The inductees were then selected based on online voting at www.usolympicteam.com, with a requirement to select five individual athletes, one team, one Paralympian and one coach. When the inductees are announced, a veteran and a "special contributor" are also included. According to an 2012 press release, total membership has been brought to 96 Olympians, five Paralympians, 10 teams, four coaches, 10 veterans, 16 contributors and two Olive Branch award inductees. In the past the Hall of Fame has sought to construct a museum, but construction has not begun due to a lack of sponsorship. ==Inducted as Individuals== *Tenley Albright (Figure Skating) *Evelyn Ashford (Track & Field) *Shirley Babashoff (Swimming) *Bruce Baumgartner (Wrestling) *Bob Beamon (Track & Field) *Joan Benoit (Track & Field) *Matt Biondi (Swimming) *Bonnie Blair (Speed Skating) *Brian Boitano (Figure Skating) *Ralph Boston (Track & Field) *Dick Button (Figure Skating) *Lee Calhoun (Track & Field) *Milt Campbell (Track & Field) *Connie Carpenter-Phinney (Cycling) *Tracy Caulkins (Swimming) *Cassius Clay (Boxing) *Alice Coachman (Track & Field) *James Brendan Connolly (Track & Field) *Bart Conner (Gymnastics) *Charles Daniels (Swimming) *Willie Davenport (Track & Field) *Glenn Davis (Track & Field) *John Davis (Weight Lifting) *Oscar de La Hoya (Boxing) *Donna de Varona (Swimming) *Gail Devers (Track & Field) *Babe Didrikson (Track & Field) *Harrison Dillard (Track & Field) *Jean Driscoll (Paralympic Track & Field) *Eddie Eagan (Bobsledding/Boxing) *Teresa Edwards (Basketball) *Janet Evans (Swimming) *Lee Evans (Track & Field) *Ray Ewry (Track & Field) *Lisa Fernandez (Softball) *Peggy Fleming (Figure Skating) *George Foreman (Boxing) *Dick Fosbury (Track & Field) *Joe Frazier (Boxing) *Dan Gable (Wrestling) *Rowdy Gaines (Swimming) *Diana Golden-Brosnihan (Paralympian: Disabled Skiing) *Florence Griffith-Joyner (Track & Field) *Gary Hall, Jr. (Swimming) *Dorothy Hamill (Figure Skating) *Scott Hamilton (Figure Skating) *Bob Hayes (Track & Field) *Eric Heiden (Speed Skating) *Dan Jansen (Speed Skating) *Carol Heiss Jenkins (Figure Skating) *Caitlyn Jenner (then Bruce) (Track & Field) *Michael Johnson (Track & Field) *Rafer Johnson (Track & Field) *Jackie Joyner-Kersee (Track & Field) *Duke Kahanamoku (Swimming) *John B.
