As the 1956 Melbourne games opened, the young Hungarian gymnast heard the news of her mother's death in street rioting in Budapest. Despite that blow, she went on to win three gold medals on the beam, the asymmetric bars and on the floor, the discipline in which she had already taken a gold in Helsinki four years earlier.After her four Olympic golds, like many other Hungarian sportspersons, Agnes Kaleti did not go home. She moved to Israel where she began a career as a trainer.
