The Frontiers of Flight Museum will celebrate the accomplishments of women in STEM-related fields with the launch of its inaugural Women’s Network brunch featuring retired NASA mathematician and aerospace engineer Christine Darden, Ph.D. (pictured) on Tuesday, Sept. 18 at 11 a.m. Dr. Darden is one of the trailblazers featured in the 2016 book by Margo Lee Shetterly, Hidden Figures: The Story of African-American Women Who Helped Win the Space Race. “Darden’s life’s work is an example of how STEM education can open up opportunities for today’s youth,” said Sutterfield-Jones, president and CEO of the Frontiers of Flight Museum. The Frontiers of Flight Museum serves nearly 30,000 children every year with STEM-related educational programming.
