An Interview with Iris Zimmermann
Iris Zimmermann, Olympic foil fencer from the 2000 games, along with her sister and fellow Olympian, Felicia Zimmermann (1996 and 2000), are the co-owners of the Rochester Fencing Club. Born and raised just outside of Rochester, NY, Iris and Felicia are honored to be the first sisters ever to be inducted into the US Fencing Hall of Fame. Because fencing is clearly rising in popularity in the U.S., we asked Iris to tell us what all the fuss is about.
