Summary "Today, Dr. Mae Jemison is famous for being the first Black woman to travel into outer space. But when she was growing up, she felt torn between two passions: science and dance. It seemed like an impossible choice. There had to be some way to make room for both--and Mae found one. As an adult, she combined her gifts of scientific logic and artistic creativity and became an astronaut."--Amazon.
