About Company
How our TALL story all started—thanks to Kae Sumner Einfeldt!
The history of Tall Clubs International (TCI) began as a wish of a taller-than-average young lady who found her knees knocking the underside of her school desk. This young lady was Kae Sumner, and friends remember her lamenting the lack of leg room in the cafeteria and even on buses. They recall her uttering “There ought to be a club for tall people.”
