FMARS-9 Crew Biographies
Louise Wynn
Louise Wynn is a writer, editor, college instructor, USGS-trained crack shot with a rifled-slug shotgun, and also holds degrees in English and linguistics. She raised five kids while she lived in remote southern Venezuela and western Saudi Arabia, and learned to avoid bushmasters as she climbed the largest tepuis (cliff—sided mountains) rising above the northern Amazon jungle and stay away from tiger sharks while diving off the Farasan Islands of the Red Sea.
Born into a pioneering family in Arizona, she has wanted to go to Mars ever since she was a little girl. She is looking toward Mars, and beyond, for her children and grandchildren and for all of us. |
