Eleanor Sanger (September 15, 1929 – March 7, 1993) was a 7-time Emmy-award-winning television writer and producer, who was the first woman Network Sports Producer."Women television producers are still as rare as Howard Cosell's silences, but at least one has begun to break through the double barriers of televised sports.
