Apollo Speaker / Amy Sue Bean

“Nothing is more important
than the dreams we hold today.
There is no better time than now
to achieve those dreams.”

Alan Bean
Astronaut, Moonwalker, Artist

Hi, I’m Amy Sue Bean…

I’m a speaker, a writer, the daughter of Aviator, Astronaut, Artist Alan Bean. I grew up in the history-making community of men, women and children who had a dream, worked together to achieve the impossible, and landed man on the moon. Our family marked the passing of time, not by the changing of the seasons, but by the power of the next rocket launch, and the boundaries broken as man pushed closer and closer to the moon.

"Amy’s talk is both emotional and inspirational. Through her personal stories of
her Astronaut father’s dedication and commitment to his duty and dreams,
and the support her family provided him, our students came away with the message
that with extra effort and commitment, they can reach their own stars."

"Amy Bean presented a wonderful recollection and tribute to her father Alan Bean from the incredible time of the Apollo spaceflights. From a unique perspective of the daughter of a moonwalker, she tells stories of a very exciting time in world history and weaves in her personal and unique family perspectives. She, of course, also discusses the background of some of her father’s famous artwork. A truly enjoyable presentation from many perspectives: aerospace, history, art, and family."

"Amy is as down to Earth as her spacefaring father was, a truly accessible and relatable speaker who can share the lessons she learned literally at the knee of one of Project Apollo’s greatest heroes. As we inevitably lose the men who were the first to leave Earth’s gravitational bonds to explore our sister satellite, there are no better witnesses to history than their children. I can’t think of a better person to tell the story of the first pinpoint landing on the Moon than Amy Bean."
