Track champ to speak at Tufts

Dr. Lillian R. Greene-Chamberlain began running at the age of seven, beating little boys in the schoolyard and attracting the attention of one police officer who immediately placed her in a community league. By the time she was 18, Greene-Chamberlain had made a name of herself in track and field competition, setting a new world record in Russia and becoming the first African-American woman to represent the United States in the 400 and 800 meter events before they even became Olympic events.
