Some Famous People called Bert Schneider
Bert Schneider (boxer)
Julius Gustav Albert "Bert" Schneider (July 1, 1897 – February 20, 1986) was a Canadian welterweight boxer who competed in the early 1920s.
He was born in Cleveland, Ohio, United States, was raised in Montreal, and was Jewish.
Schneider's greatest success was as an amateur, winning the welterweight gold medal in boxing at the 1920 Summer Olympics with a win over British boxer Alexander Ireland in the final. Schneider was the first Canadian to win an Olympic boxing gold medal. Only two other Canadian boxers have achieved that feat in all the years since: Horace Gwynne in 1932 and Lennox Lewis in 1988.
