Dear Mr. Kelsey

I have collected autographs for over 20 years. When I was in college I started writing to celebrities and asking them what they would tell a class of elementary school students. Over the years I have gotten over 200 letter and signed pictures to my students. I think that by these very busy people taking the time to share their thoughts with students, it shows the power of education. I hope you enjoy my collection

Scott Crossfield





















I thought I would include this as one of the first letters on this blog. Scott Crossfield was a test pilot. He was the first person to go two times faster than the speed of sound. Mr. Crossfield died recently in a plane crash. Here is a picture and letter that he sent to my class.

The text of the letter is:
Crossfield Credo:
Work hard
Decide what you want from life and
go for it!

Scott Crossfield
