WHAT'S HAPPENING
WHAT'S HAPPENING
From "Hidden Figures" to shiny plastic figurines!
Sally Ride was a graduate student at Stanford when she answered an ad in the Stanford Daily and applied for a job with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, better known as NASA.
Plus there's a beautifully animated film to bring life to the 1983 conversation.
Sally Ride led a bifurcated life too. She didn't forget part of herself, she just chose not to present it to the world. I am fascinated by her success in transforming the world while hiding part of herself.
