Daniel Steven Kowalski OAM OLY (born 2 July 1975) is an Australian former middle- and long-distance swimmer specialising in freestyle events. He competed in the Olympic Games in 200-, 400- and 1,500-metre individual freestyle events and in the 4 × 200-metre freestyle relay. At the 1996 Summer Olympics , he was the first man in 92 years to earn medals in all of the 200-, 400- and 1500-metre freestyle events. Kowalski, alongside Livinia Nixon , hosted the short-lived TV show Plucka's Place in 1997. Kowalski is perhaps best known for having been a perpetual runner-up to fellow Australians Kieren Perkins and Grant Hackett , who were, respectively, the world's best 1500-metre freestyle competitors during the earlier and later parts of Kowalski's career. He was an Australian Institute of Sport scholarship holder.[1] Daniel's coaches included Denis Cotterell and Bill Nelson .

Retirement [ edit ]
Kowalski announced his retirement from competitive swimming on 8 May 2002. He studied sports marketing at Bond University , graduating in 2003. He was named as an assistant swimming coach at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2007, and also won the 2007 Pier to Pub 1.2 km open-water swim held annually in Lorne , Australia.[2]
In February 2004, he was the host of an overnight program on SEN 1116 with former South East Melbourne Magic basketballer Andrew Parkinson .[citation needed ] In May 2007, Kowalski appeared as one of the celebrity performers on the celebrity reality singing competition It Takes Two .[citation needed ]
In April 2010, Kowalski announced that he is gay .[3] Kowalski says he was inspired to come out by Welsh rugby player Gareth Thomas , who announced the previous December that he was gay. He said "I felt really compelled to do it because it's very tough to live a closeted existence". In 2010, Kowalski was selected by readers of samesame.com.au as one of the 25 most influential gay Australians.[4]
