David Chudwin, MD, is the author of the upcoming book I Was a Teenage Space Reporter: From Apollo 11 to Our Future in Space.
David decided to go into medicine instead of journalism, but his Apollo 11 experiences led to a lifelong interest in space exploration. Chudwin has written about Apollo 11 in a variety of media outlets and has spoken about Apollo 11 at schools and at space meetings, including Spacefest. Chudwin is well-known in the space community, and Apollo astronauts Charles Duke, Fred Haise, Alfred Worden, and Jack Lousma have written endorsements for this book.
