Answer:

Option: False

Step-by-step explanation:

Former Olympic Medal winner Mary Lou Retton never worked as an actor after making her career as an athlete. Her Olympic gold medal was a memorable win because she was the first American woman to win a gold medal in gymnastics. Soon after the Los Angeles 1984 Olympic Games, Retton retired from sports competition and became a spokesperson and did television ads supporting Ronald Reagan.
