RIP.

 

In addition to her groundbreaking role on ST, she was one of my first celebrity crushes.

A trailblazer and a real class act. RIP.

 

I'm thinking the G-Man must have been behind on his July quota. Seems like some weekend cramming happened this weekend

Met her once when she was doing NASA promotions at college and I got to get her to sign my hardcover copy of "Friday", a book by Robert Heinlein which he dedicated to her.

I was fan of her as a kid and had a record "Down to Earth" with her music on it I bought at a used book/comic/record store.
