Eileen Collins is among the most recognized and admired women in the world, yet this is the first time she has told her story in a book. It is a story not only of achievement and overcoming obstacles but of profound personal transformation. The shy, quiet child of an alcoholic father and struggling single mother, who grew up in modest circumstances and was an unremarkable student, she had few prospects when she graduated from high school, but she changed her life to pursue her secret dream of becoming an astronaut. She shares her leadership and life lessons throughout the book with the aim of inspiring and passing on her legacy to a new generation.

Craig Saila28 years ago today, #EileenCollins launches in #SpaceShuttle Discovery as the pilot on #STS63 — the first female to do so — to rendezvous with #Mir #SpaceStation
Four years later she became the first female #NASA commander of a spacecraft, this time the Columbia, during #STS93 (which deployed the #ChandraXRay Observatory)
On her last mission #STS114 — again aboard Discovery, but this time to #ISS — she’s the first person to fly a shuttle in a full 360° pitch maneuver
