Maybelle Blair Comes Out During Film Festival

MAYBELLE BLAIR, 95, COMES OUT DURING FILM FESTIVAL

Everitt Rosen

Maybelle “Mae” Blair, 95, has come out at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of Amazon Studios’ “A League of Their Own.” She played in the All American Girls Professional Baseball League, which was the inspiration for the 1992 film and the current series.

Blair, also known as “All The Way Mae,” said she was pleased to see athletes no longer having to hide their sexual orientation and the support found in the sport during a panel discussion.

“I think it’s a great opportunity for these young girl ball players to come [to] realize that they’re not alone, and you don’t have to hide,” Blair shared with The Advocate. “I hid for 75, 85 years and this is actually basically the first time I’ve ever come out.”
