Laurel van der Wal

Laurel van der Wal (September 22, 1924 – August 13, 2009) was an American aeronautical engineer who worked to solve the challenges of maintaining human life in space.
==Early life and education==
Laurel van der Wal was born in San Francisco, the daughter of Lillian and Richard van der Wal, both from Spokane, Washington. Her mother was a former teacher and an alumna of the University of Washington; her father was a businessman.〔("Society News," ''Morning Oregonian'' (June 21, 1919): 10. )〕 She graduated from high school at age 15, and worked as a model, an art instructor, a deputy sheriff, a showgirl, a railroad switch tower operator, and a casino shill as a young woman. "I am impatient with people who do not make full use of all their capabilities," she explained in 1962.〔(Joan Sweeney, "Work by Woman Scientist Helped Prepare Way for Manned Flights," ''Franklin Evening Star'' (June 21, 1962): 14. ) via Newspapers.com 〕 She admired pilots and hoped to earn a pilot license, but instead worked as an aircraft mechanic during World War II, at Hamilton Air Force Base. She decided to pursue further education in mechanical engineering at the University of California Berkeley, where she earned a bachelor's degree in 1949, with honors. Her graduate education was funded in part by a National Research Council fellowship to study aeronautics in Stockholm, Sweden.〔(Marvin Miles, "Miss Van der Wal Probes Problems of Life in Space," ''Los Angeles Times'' (January 23, 1961): A1. )〕
