Linda K, as she is known, has lived in North Carolina for
over twelve years. She was a founding member of the Sandhills
Astronomical Society, and is the founder and sponsor of the Western
Harnett Astronomy Club at Western Harnett High School, which now has
the distinction of being one of the largest clubs on campus. They
sponsor school-wide events designed to excite students about space
exploration. These include monthly trivia contests, poster
contests, essay contests, an annual "Space Day Celebration" at the
school, and more.
Linda's fascination with space began early. Her grandfather worked
with the space program at Cape Canaveral, and her maternal
grandparents lived so close to the Cape she was able to see launches
from their yard.
Linda's interests include working with children and young adults,
astronomy, history, and marine biology. She has created a website
(www.4mrsk.com) encompassing these interests and more.
