Euphrasia Louise "Fraze" Donnelly (June 6, 1905 – May 20, 1963) was an American competition swimmer, Olympic champion, and former world record-holder.[1] Donnelly represented the United States at the 1924 Summer Olympics in Paris, where she won a gold medal as a member of the winning U.S. team in the women's 4×100-meter freestyle relay event.[2] Donnelly and her American relay teammates Gertrude Ederle, Ethel Lackie and Mariechen Wehselau set a new world record in the event final of 4:58.8.[2][3]
Donnelly was born on June 6, 1905, in Indianapolis to Maurice Donnelly and Sarah Jane McCarthy.[4] She was one of seven children: Maurice, Eileen, Mary, Cecile, Virginia, and Crawford. Fraze (as she was called by her family and friends) was known for her athleticism and quick sense of humor. She later went on to work as an instructor at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College.[5] On November 1, 1934, she married Bruce Raymond Bungard,[4] a fireman.[6]
