Althea was born in Silver, South Carolina, in 1927. When Althea was still a child, her family moved north to New York City. While Althea was in junior high school, she became interested in paddle tennis. She practiced every chance she got, and soon she was good enough to win a medal.
One day, a Black musician named Buddy Walker saw Althea playing paddle tennis. He realized how good she was. So he bought her a real tennis racket and took her to a tennis court. Althea instantly fell in love with tennis. She staled playing in the All Black American Tennis Association Tournaments. When she was just fifteen, Althea played in the New York State Girls’ Open Tennis Tournament and got as far as the finals. In 1942, World War Ⅱ came along, and there were no more tournaments for four years. But when the tournaments started again in 1946, Althea instantly became a star.
