Diana Nyad turns her record swim into a 1-woman stage show

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: Diana Nyad, who made history as the first person to swim across the Florida Straits without a shark cage, isn’t scared of wading into another challenge — theater.

The 65-year-old endurance swimmer is performing “Onward! The Diana Nyad Story,” a one-woman show in Key West, Fla., near the spot where in 2013 she achieved her dream of 35 years.
