Frank Robinson

A director since 1998, Frank Robinson, the only player to win MVP awards in both leagues, was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1982. His leadership skills helped him become the major league's first African-American field manager in 1975 with the Cleveland Indians. He served as Major League Baseball's vice president of on-field operations before becoming the Montreal Expos' manager prior to the 2002 season. He managed the Expos through 2004, and also guided the team when they relocated to Washington, from 2005-2006. In 2005, he received the Medal of Freedom in a White House Ceremony.
