Caitlyn Jenner will receive the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPYS on Wednesday, nearly 39 years after winning the Olympic decathlon in Montreal.
Dick Schaap interviewed Jenner, then Bruce Jenner, for an NBC News piece that aired on July 29, 1976, the first day of the Montreal Olympic decathlon.
NBC News republished that report as part of a piece looking back on Jenner’s Olympic glory and fame.
