Nearly 50 years ago, legendary NFL coach and general manager, Vince Lombardi was at the peak of his career. He now has many accomplishments to his name, including leading the Packers to victory in the first two Super Bowls.

His unique way of leading the team through bullying, while showing love and being protective, along with his ability to create a team unlike any other sparked a general interest in Lombardi’s life.

The public was interested in gaining more knowledge on his skills and methods of management and coaching, to his inspirational and motivational teachings, all the way through to his death at the age of 57 from cancer. This interest inspired a biography based on Vince Lombardi’s life by  Pulitzer Prize-winning author, David Maraniss, entitled When Pride Still Mattered: A Life of Vincent Lombardi.

This biography in turn inspired a broadway play on one of the NFL’s most legendary coaches. Lombardi starring Dan Lauria opened on Broadway earlier this weak at New York’s Circle in the Square Theatre. Sponsored by the NFL, this play highlights and showcases one of the league’s most iconic heroes for all kinds of audiences.
