McKayla Maroney was born and raised in California. The daughter of Mike
and Erin Maroney, she was home-schooled so that she could train as an
elite gymnast. She started her senior career in 2011 at the age of 15.
At that year's world championships, Maroney won gold medals in the team
and vault competitions. She was then named to the 2012 U.S. Olympic
team and helped the Americans win the team gold medal. In the vault
competition, she won the silver medal, and her look of disappointment
while standing on the podium was photographed and became an Internet
meme. Maroney made her acting debut in the series
Hart of Dixie (2011) later in
2012.
