Ezra Frech, a prominent American Paralympic athlete, has established himself both as a top athlete, and as a leading advocate of disability rights. In 2005, Frech was born with congenital limb differences, leaving him without most of his left leg and fingers on his left hand; he received his first prosthetic leg at just 11 months old. Competing in the T63 category for athletes with a leg amputation below the knee, he is a two-time Paralympic gold medalist, having triumphed in both the 100m and high jump at the 2024 Paris Games.
A former junior world champion and motivational speaker, Frech is currently a student-athlete at the University of Southern California, making him one of the most recognizable and accomplished athletes on the American team at the 2025 World Para Athletics Champions
