Under Secretary for Science & Research at the Smithsonian, Dr. Ellen Stofan on Pioneers in Aviation & Aerospace
In this conversation, Dr. Ellen Stofan joins us to discuss pioneers in aviation and aerospace. Ellen is from the great state of Ohio where she grew up with her father working for NASA and mother was a science teacher. She watched her first rocket launch at the age of four, and at age 14, she realized that she wanted to be a planetary geologist. Ellen revied her Ph.D. from Brown and went on to serve as the Chief Scientist for NASA. Ellen was the first female Director of the National Air and Space Museum, and today, she serves as the Under Secretary for Science and Research at the Smithsonian.
