FAMOUS JAMESES
(UPDATED WEEKLY)
|
Each week, we highlight a historic or famous person named James. This week's famous James is:
| James Edwin Webb |
(born October 7, 1906 - died March 27, 1992) The administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from February 1961 to October 1968, during the Mercury, Gemini and early Apollo years; he was only the second head of the 2-1/2 year old agency. He had previously been Undersecretary of State in the Truman Administration, and also worked for a Congressman and former governor. His skills helped him to gain political support and accomplish the Apollo Moon landing. Webb was also at helm when the Apollo 1 fire occurred, when three astronauts were killed during a simulation on the launch pad. The NASA website says he "did more for science than perhaps any other government official." In 1969, Webb received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. The James Webb Space Telescope will be launched in 2018; it was renamed in his honor in 2002.

The name "James" is the English equivalent of Jacob; the first Jacob in the Bible was the patriarch of the 12 tribes of Israel. "James" is consistently among the most popular names for boys in the U.S.
Plural form of James: According to the Carnegie Mellon Style Guide, "Form plurals of family names that end in 's' by adding 'es.' Right: The Jameses live in Edgewood." See also StackExchange.com.
