Claudia J., age 56 died of breast cancer on July 11. She was the Galileo project manager, and served as a science coordinator on the Cassini mission to Saturn. In her spare time, she wrote 2 books on science for children, and mentored young people, especially African-American girls because "she wanted children of color to see themselves as scientists" her sister, Suzanne said.

This popped up on my FB feed today and I wanted to share with you all.
