Hirthler & Partners is motivated by a passion to communicate
the values of the Olympic Ideal. Over the last 14 years,
George Hirthler has dedicated his professional life to serving
and strengthening the Olympic Movement. His Olympic writings
have helped articulate the power and promise of the Movement
in dozens of articles, publications, speeches and presentations.
In the interests of spreading a broader understanding of
the values at the heart of the Olympic Movement, Hirthler
& Partners will publish a series of articles from the
archives—and the keyboard—in hopes of illuminating the firm’s
belief that the Olympic Movement holds more hope for the
future of humanity than any other international institution.
The three articles that follow include
an Appreciation of Baron Pierre de Coubertin, founder
of the modern Olympic Movement, that Hirthler wrote in
1993, a profile of Civil Rights Leader and former US Ambassador
to the United Nations, Andrew Young, written for the Atlanta
1996 Souvenir Program, and a piece on The Olympic Spirit
written with Jean Claude Killy for the Salt Lake 2002
Souvenir Program.
