The outstanding figure in the history of skating, for she later turned her skills to good professional account and won a host of new admirers throughout the world by way of films. She became Norwegian champion in 1924. Competing in the Winter Olympics at Chamonix (1924) before her twelfth birthday, she was last of eight competitors, but she won the title at her second attempt, at St.Moritz, where she danced on Tchaikovsky's 'Death of a Swan' from 'Swan Lake'. After twice retaining her title, she turned professional and was given a contract by 20th Century Fox. She would earn almost 50 million dollars to become the richest Olympian woman in history.
In the World Championships she was fifth in 1924 and in 1926 she was runner-up in the women's event and fifth in the pairs with Arne Lie. She was never beaten again. She won 10 world titles (1927-36), six European (1931-6).
She made eleven films between 1938 and 1960. With her third husband, Niels Onstad, she founded the Henie-Onstad collection of modern paintings which they presented to Norway.
Miss Henie developed leukaemia in 1969 and died in an aircraft which was carrying her from Paris to Oslo for medical treatment.
Sandra Loosemore's page devoted to skating legends, also has a photo of the young Sonja.
The Henie-Onstad collection also has a homepage (in Norwegian or in English)
Her record as the youngest gold medallist was broken by Tara Lipinsky at Nagano in 1998.
