After a hang-gliding accident in 1978, Marilyn Hamilton was determined to continue her active lifestyle, but her heavy wheelchair made that difficult. Drawing inspiration from the materials used in hang gliders, she worked with two friends to invent a lightweight wheelchair that was easy to maneuver. She co-founded Motion Designs in 1979 to manufacture her wheelchairs, still sold today under the brand name Quickie. Hamilton’s many accomplishments as an athlete include two women’s wheelchair singles titles in the US Open tennis competition.
