Biographical Information:

 

 
Photo of AmbassadorThomas Mueller, like the planets of our solar system, has been a "wanderer!" He was born in Wisconsin, grew up in New Mexico, spent much of his adult life in France, and is, for the moment, living in North Carolina. Throughout these wanderings observing the night sky has always been a passion. He has been teaching astronomy off and on throughout his 20+ year teaching career. In addition, he has made astronomical concepts accessible to the general public from kindergartners to adults through exhibitions and telescopic observations. Thomas is currently Assistant Dean of Academics, Chair of the Department of Science, and teacher of biology, ecology, and astronomy at Saint Mary's School, a day and boarding high school for girls in Raleigh. He lives at the school with his wife and two sons.
