Lee Kemp, a 7 time US National Champion and winner of 9 gold medals at the World Championships, World Cup, and Pan American games -- is one of the greatest wrestlers in United States history. In this interview I have a candid conversation with Lee about his journey to greatness, his tumble to rock bottom and his rise back to the top in life. This is a truly unbelievable story of excellence, achievement and finding your place in the world after misfortune and hardship set you back.
