Professor, Coach & Advisor
1968-1996
Angela Fisher-educator, mentor and friend-was a pioneer in the field of physical education who gave her knowledge and skills to an entire generation of students, both here in New York City and throughout the nation. Professor Fisher fought tirelessly for the recognition of women's athletics. During her 24-year coaching career at Lehman College, her women's softball teams won more than 235 games. In 1980, she led her team to a Triple Crown victory in Division III tournaments, and in each of the next three years, her teams won the City University of New York Athletic Conference tournament. Tough, but sensitive to individual needs, Fisher interacted well with students and athletes and was committed to helping them achieve.
