Marion Hall Zinderstein (May 6, 1896 – August 14, 1980) also known by her married name Marion Jessup, and also known as Marion Jessup MacLure,[1] was a tennis player from the United States. At the 1924 Paris Olympics, she won a silver medal in the mixed doubles event partnering Vincent Richards.[2][3]
Career
Marion Zinderstein twice reached the singles finals of the U.S. National Championships. In 1919, she defeated reigning champion Molla Bjurstedt from Norway in the semifinals in straight sets and then lost to compatriot Hazel Hotchkiss Wightman in the final, 1–6, 2–6.[4] A year later, 1920, Bjurstedt avenged the previous year's semifinal defeat and Zinderstein suffered a heavy loss in the final, 3–6, 1–6.
In 1924, she became national singles indoor champion when she defeated Lillian Scharman, 6–2, 6–3, in the indoor tournament at Brookline, Massachusetts.[5][6] She successfully defended the title in 1925, beating Anna Fuller Hubbard in the final.
In 1976, she was inducted into the Delaware Sports Hall of Fame.[7]
Personal
Her parents were Charles Zinderstein (1866–1902) and Elizabeth Schmalz, both children of German immigrants. Her father and grandfather were in the silk milling business in Allentown, Pennsylvania. After her father's death, the family moved to West Newton, Massachusetts in 1912, where they lived on Prince Street. Marion married John Butler Jessup in 1921. After his death, she married Henry MacLure, whom she also survived. She had two children.[8]
