Sandra J. Wayne Campbell     1951-          Kansas City, Kansas

In flying helmet and goggles, she stands in a pool of light on the stage and
recreates the exciting story and persona of Bessie Coleman - the first African-
American woman to win her wings as an aviator.  Sandy's show "Follow Your
Dreams" is the result of years of work researching Bessie's history and bringing
it alive so young people in search of their own futures can become inspired to
similarly reach for the greatness within themselves.  From Wolf Aviation Fund

A public school teacher remembers that Sandy came to Lawrence, Kansas,
several years ago and gave a memorable performance.

She was inspired to write "Follow Your Dreams" after standing in for Bessie
Coleman’s posthumous induction into the Women In Aviation International "Hall
of Fame" in 1995. Since the first performance Sandra has been traveling the
country telling this compelling story to young and old.
