Host and producer Dr. Thomas A. Dutta sits down with author Anita Mitchell to talk about her memoir, You Don't Look Like an Astronaut's Wife!, and the woman behind the receiving lines.

For years, people introduced her as "his wife." She was married to Ed Mitchell, the sixth man to walk on the moon. Before that, and after it, she built a life with her own name on it: radio voice, Disney convention coordinator, fundraiser for the American Film Institute, candidate for the Florida House, founder of her own public relations firm, and leader of business and government delegations to East Africa during the famine.

✅ What a single mother learned riding the bus to sell radio ads on the Space Coast
✅ The question she asked the father of the hydrogen bomb at a Stanford reception
✅ Why she slipped off her shoes and refused the question two reporters handed her at the 1980 Republican convention
✅ What leading delegations into East Africa during the famine taught her
✅ How "take the good and leave the rest" carried her through two divorces and cancer
