Tracee Ann Talavera (born September 1, 1966)[1] is an American former artistic gymnast who competed for the United States at the Olympics and World Championships.

She was the 1981 and 1982 U.S. National All-around Champion and a member of the silver medal-winning American team at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles.

[1] Coached by Dick and Linda Mulvihill until 1983, when she began training with Mike Lynch,[2] Talavera rose to prominence on the U.S. gymnastics scene in the late 1970s.

Early in the year, she won the all-around title and every event except vault at the American Cup, beating a field that included Romanian Emilia Eberle, a multiple medalist at the World Championships.

[6] However, due to President Jimmy Carter's boycott of the Games in the Soviet Union to protest the invasion of Afghanistan, Talavera, along with the rest of the American team, was unable to participate in the Olympics.

She also became one of only a few American women to date to win an individual medal at Worlds, earning a bronze on the balance beam.
