“These photos are encouraging and inspiring, but most of all, they are true.”
— from the Foreword by Penny Marshall

The extraordinary collection of photographs and rich personal stories that make up Game Face documents the tremendous impact that sports has on the daily lives of millions of girls and women. On playing fields and street corners, in backyards and gyms, the people in this arresting array of pictures are unselfconsciously exploring the physical and emotional pleasures of competition and play. Each image offers an affirming and satisfying answer to the question at the heart of Game Face: What do girls and women look like, freed from traditional feminine constraints, using their bodies in joyful and empowering ways?

Game Face includes a totally unique and exhilarating selection of color and black-and-white photographs, a text with first-person accounts by athletes, and an illustrated timeline of women’s athletic milestones.
