Beyond Baseball: The Life of Roberto Clemente
Orange County Regional History Center
Ongoing Every Day From February 22, 2012 Until March 18, 2012
Roberto Clemente Walker (1934-1972), who played baseball with the Pittsburgh Pirates for 18 years, remains a legendary figure in sports, in philanthropy, and in the hearts of millions in Puerto Rico and America. With a cannon arm and lightning speed that earned him 12 consecutive Gold Glove Awards, four batting crowns, and 3,000 hits, Clemente was an outstanding baseball player, but the Puerto Rico native was also a dedicated humanitarian. Beyond Baseball: The Life of Roberto Clemente, developed by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service, the Smithsonian Latino Center, the Clemente family, and the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico, is a bilingual tribute to his outstanding achievements that takes visitors on a journey into sports history, ethnic pride, and a profound commitment to helping others. Included in general admission.
