Dave Brown with a camcorder during training. Jim Halsell, Astronaut

Dave Brown. Dave probably didn't know this, but he was categorized with envy by his fellow astronauts into a very special group we call "the renaissance astronauts." You see, before he was an astronaut, Dave was a Navy fighter pilot, and before he was a naval aviator, he was a medical doctor, and before that, he was a national class gymnast and even a circus performer. Dave's theory about life was to have fun at everything he did and to do everything possible, and he did everything so well.

Dave was a wanna-be Steven Spielberg. He edited miles of camcorder tape that he took of his crew's activities and made them into very, very polished videos, music included. Every crew family will now cherish those videos forever.
