Kelly, Johnny

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.02 sec.

Kelly, Johnny (John Brendan) (1889–1960)

US rower. After being denied the prize at Britain's Henley rowing regatta because he worked for a living (the race was for ‘gentlemen’), he won gold medals in Olympic singles and doubles sculls in 1920 and in the doubles in 1924. A self-made man, he became a very wealthy contractor and was active in Democratic Party politics.

He was born in Philadelphia. His daughter was Grace Kelly, the actor and Princess of Monaco.
