Dinner w/ a Slice of History: "The New Space Age" featuring NASA Astronaut Kathy Sullivan
Friday, September 15, 2023
IWASM inside Burke Lakefront Airport & via Zoom
The new Space Age we’re in is about much more than short tourist hops to the edge of space. The number of spacefaring nations has grown substantially, a plethora of start-up companies has entered the arena, new business models are emerging and venture capital investment is rising. 
This talk provides an overview of the big changes afoot and digs below the headlines to reveal some of the major hurdles and big unknowns that lie ahead.
Selected in the NASA astronaut class of 1978, becoming one of the first female astronauts, oceanographer, geologist, author, and trailblazer Kathryn Sullivan joins the International Women's Air and Space Museum on Friday, September 15. A veteran of three Space Shuttle Missions, and the first American woman to do a spacewalk, Sullivan will explore the new era of our space program.

Life in the Air Begins & Ends on the Ground
Friday, October 13, 2023 6-7:30 p.m. EST
Join us for the final Dinner with a Slice of History on October 13!
Life in the air begins and ends on the ground. Before takeoff or flight, an idea, dream, or thought will become a concept to make life better or easier or give a greater advantage than currently available for aviation. It takes a lot of intelligent and dedicated people to help 
move this idea to reality. Hundreds of people are involved in developing an airplane, helicopters, rockets, and missiles. Join Dr. Claudette Owens and U.S. Army Colonel (ret.) Mary Miller as they shed light on the numerous behind-the-scenes activities of aviation 'she-roes' who provide 'life' to aviation based on their combined experiences with the US Army Space & Missile Defense Command and their continued work toward innovation.
Dinner begins promptly at 6:00 p.m. EST

The International Women's Air & Space Museum (IWASM) is pleased to announce the return of Dinner with a Slice of History, a program made possible through a Cuyahoga Arts and Culture (CAC) grant.
Deborah Chung's late mother, Rebecca Chan Chung (1920-2011), was a U.S. World War II Army veteran having worked as a nurse with the Flying Tigers during the Battle for Hong Kong. For her service, she was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. As a nurse, Rebecca Chan Chung’s 
work included flying over the Hump for about 50 times—considered the most dangerous in the history of aviation. Numerous lives were lost due to plane crashes, insecurity of attacks by Japanese fighters and unpredictable weather. Rebecca's story and experience was necessary, because the Burma Road that crossed the Himalayas had been cut and the eastern seaboard of China had been closed by Japan. Hear about Rebecca Chan Chung's legacy and trailblazing experience as an aerial nurse during World War II.
Deborah Chung is a professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Buffalo. In 2021, she was named #1 in the world in the field of Building and Construction by a Stanford University study. She earned a M.S. in Engineering from the California Institute of Technology (1973) and PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1977).

Dinner with a Slice of History Researching Black Women in Aviation: Barriers & Breakthroughs
March 25, 2022 at 6:00 p.m. (EDT)
The International Women's Air & Space Museum (IWASM) is pleased to announce the return of Dinner with a Slice of History, a program made possible through a Cuyahoga Arts and Culture (CAC) grant.
When Bessie Coleman made her U.S. barnstorming debut in 1922, her exhibition flights inspired more African Americans to become aviators. Over the next few decades, 
Black women took to the skies, earned licenses, and did their best to integrate the burgeoning aviation industry. The challenges of researching these women often keeps them out of the history books. Piecing together their stories takes time, energy, perseverance, and trust. In this program IWASM welcomes U.S. Air Force (ret.) and cultural historian Monica Smith to discuss her mission to document and share the stories of these remarkable women.

Dinner with a Slice of History World War II Women in Aviation: An Exploration in Leadership
September 17, 2021 at 7:00 p.m. (EDT)
1501 N Marginal Rd, Cleveland, OH - Burke Lakefront Airport
The International Women's Air & Space Museum (IWASM) is pleased to announce the return of Dinner with a Slice of History, a program made possible through a Cuyahoga Arts and Culture (CAC) grant.
During the Second World War, the Soviet Union and United States established segregated organizations for the purpose of recruiting and training women for aviation duties. In both nations, it was individuals, rather than the military establishment, who proposed and developed plans for the use of women aviators. The women who spearheaded those efforts had dramatically different leadership styles, from Marina Raskova’s quiet, businesslike, and approachable character, to Jacqueline Cochran’s brash, forceful, and sometimes antagonistic nature. Yet they employed strikingly similar methods to achieve their goals. In this presentation, Professor Reina Pennington will examine the parallels and differences in the lives and achievements of these two remarkable women.
Pennington is a former Air Force intelligence officer; she served as a Soviet analyst with F-4 and F-16 fighter squadrons, the Aggressor Squadrons, the Defense Intelligence Agency, and the Alaskan Air Command. She is the author of Wings, Women and War: Soviet Airwomen in World War II Combat, and is presently working on a book entitled What Russia Can Teach Us About War.

July 7, 2021 at 7:00 p.m. (EDT) via Zoom
During World War II, 1,102 American women flew as part of the WASP – Women Airforce Service Pilots – and were a blend of two groups. In the Fall of 1942, Nancy Love formed and led the Women’s Auxiliary Ferrying Squadron (WAFS) comprised of 28 women who each had a minimum of 500 flying hours. That same year, Jacqueline Cochran was authorized to recruit female pilots to fly Army trainers and were dubbed the Women’s Flying Training Detachment (WFTD). 
By the summer of 1943, Cochran was appointed Director of all Women Pilots and renamed the WAFS and WFTD as the Women Airforce Service Pilots. Join acclaimed author and IWASM advisor, Sarah Rickman, to learn more about the individuals who made up the WAFS and WASP in an evening of discussion and viewing of the film Six WAFS Up Close and Personal which tells the story of the original 28 WAFS.
