Email to Dr. S from Jonah Barrett

Hello,

My name is Jonah Barrett, and I am currently enrolled in Olympia Evergreen’s program Eye of the Story, which is a class about storytelling and narratives. For my big class project I am writing a science fiction novel, taking place on a space station and an artificial biosphere on the moon. This project has led me down various rabbit holes during the process of research, and I have been busy learning as much as I can about various subjects, including life in space.

I recently heard that you are coordinating a lecture on February 2nd with Dottie Metcalf-Lindenburger, a former astronaut with fifteen days in space under her belt. I plan on attending, because it’s the perfect coincidence and is just in time before I get started on the actual writing process. However, I am writing today because I was wondering, if at all possible, if I could possibly interview Metcalf-Lindenburger before or after the lecture? Or maybe on another day if that would be more convenient for her. Could you help me out with this? It would be very beneficial to my project, and it isn’t every day you get to meet an actual astronaut!

Thank you so much!

Jonah

Hello Jonah,

Your class project sounds very interesting.  I am glad that you can attend Dottie Metcalf-Lindenburger’s presentation at the Tacoma campus on February 2.  I will ask her if you can interview her immediately afterwards or that afternoon. and will get back to you.
