I have been asked by long time friend and astronaut nurse Dee O'Hara to pass the word that she has decided after many years to no longer sign autographs through the mail. Requests sent to her will be returned unsigned assuming return shipping has been provided.

Her decision is driven largely by the increasing amount of what she signs as a courtesy being resold through eBay or similar venues. Dee regrets the need for this choice but feels circumstances make it the best one.

The above said you may still catch her at her at the upcoming Spacefest or at other future appearances.

For those of you not able to meet Dee in person, Farthest Reaches will continue to offer a variety of reasonably priced authentically hand signed Dee O'Hara photos.

Knowing that some of you may have custom requests, they will still be considered, though there will be a signing fee and shipping costs involved. You may email should you have such a request.

Dee thanks everyone for their interest and support over the years and sincerely hopes you can all appreciate her need to make this decision.

Surprised Dee didn't stop sooner, greed has made it so the majority of spacefarers no longer sign any material.

Very sad it keeps coming to this.

What a sad story. I was very lucky to get her autograph by mail about 40 years ago. It's a valued part of my collection.
