Biography
Button is credited as having been the first skater to successfully land the double Axel jump in competition, in 1948, as well as the first triple jump of any kind – a triple loop – in 1952.
A passionate fan of the sport, he later became a sports broadcaster and wrote an autobiography about his days on ice.
Button came from an upper middle-class background, the third son. He started skating at five in hand-me-down skates, seriously competing by the time he was 16 and winning his first U.S. title. He studied piano, and passed the bar to become a lawyer, but not for long.
CBS hired him to broadcast Olympic reports, which he did with verve and candor, sometimes coming out with frosty rink side comments. He remarked of 1988 champ Katarina Witt: "She is very sexy, but there is not one move she does that I'll remember." Of Surya Bonaly: "She can do a lot of triple jumps, but basically she does not know how to skate."
Dick Button married on 10 March 1975 and had two children. He died in North Salem on 30 January 2025 at the age of 95.
What does Projector 6/2 mean for Dick Button?
Dick Button is a Projector in Human Design – a non-energy type designed to guide and direct others. Projectors make up about 20% of humanity and have a special gift for recognizing and directing the energies and talents of others.
The Projector's strategy is to wait for the right, respectful invitation before contributing their guidance. Without an invitation, the Projector's wisdom is often unrecognized or even rejected.
When Dick Button lives in alignment with their design, they experience success and recognition. The Projector's not-self theme is bitterness – a sign that their wisdom and guidance isn't being valued.
Dick Button carries the profile 6/2 – Role Model / Hermit. The 6th line represents the Role Model: a life path in three phases – first experimenting (until ~30), then observing from the "roof" (until ~50), and finally authentically embodying the role model. The 2nd line represents the Natural: a natural talent that is often unconscious and only activated when called out by others.
The incarnation cross "Left Angle Cross of Obscuration 1" describes the overarching life purpose and direction of Dick Button in Human Design. It consists of the four gate activations of Sun and Earth (personality and design) and only becomes felt when one lives their strategy and authority.
