NASA, The Smithsonian Institute and Universities are some places that he spoke at meetings for. Mr.Roddenberry also became a novelist.

I chose Gene Roddenberry because he was in the military and helped defend us and our country. Another reason why I chose him was because he created a popular movie and show.
Gene is a role model to me because he was in the military. He is also a role model to me because he got to speak for NASA.
