God Speed John Glenn

Godspeed, John Glenn Presented by Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida Atlantic University – Jupiter John Glenn was more than an astronaut and U.S. senator—he was an American icon who embodied the courage, determination, and spirit of the “Right Stuff.” While the world knew Glenn as a pioneering astronaut and dedicated statesman, few had the opportunity to know the man behind the public image. In this intimate presentation, former U.S. Senate staffer Mark Goldstein shares a unique perspective from his six years working closely with Glenn. Through personal anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stories, Goldstein reveals the character, warmth, wit, and quiet charm that defined Glenn both in public life and behind the scenes. Join OLLI at FAU Jupiter for a fascinating journey into the life of an American hero who truly reached for the stars.
