Mae! I've loved her for the last twenty years! She did an interview admitting that she acquired her love of space and the desire to go there by watchin Nichelle Nichols as Uhura on the original Star Trek. She learned that Black women could be smart, beautiful and an important part of the future and wanted her shot at it.
The producers and Majel Barrett were so moved by the interviw that Mae was given a walk on role in Star Trek: The Next Generation. It was a beautiful thing. :)
