Mae Carol Jemison (born October 17, 1956) is an American physician and NASA

astronaut. She became the first black woman to travel in space when she went

into orbit aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour on September 12, 1992.

After her medical education and a brief general practice, Jemison served in the

Peace Corps from 1985 to 1987. She resigned from NASA in 1993 to form a

company researching the application of technology to daily life.

She has appeared on television several times, including as an actor in an episode

of Star Trek: The Next Generation. She is a dancer, and holds 9 honorary doctorates

in science, engineering, letters, and the humanities.

As of early 2012, at age 55, Dr. Jemison is alive, healthy, and enjoying her retirement.
