Roberta Lynn Bondar: Born in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario in 1945. Trained as a neurologist, Dr. Bondar was Canada’s first woman astronaut and she had flair. She took her favourite food, Girl Guide cookies, into space with her. She brought from space a real sense of just how delicate our small blue planet really is and is now using her photography to help show the dire need to save our earth’s environment. She had been a researcher and lecture at McMaster University in Hamilton, the University of Western Ontario in London, and is currently serving as Chancellor at Trent University in Peterborough. She is the author or the subject of several books which are available through your Public Library.
