During her years at Cornell, she worked at a Cambodian refugee camp and also traveled to Cuba. She graduated in 1981 and interned at LA County Medical before joining the Peace Corps and serving in private practice. Jemison ultimately worked with the Center for Disease Control, assisting in vaccine research, and even helped produce the hepatitis B vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to her incredible work in science, medicine, and technology, Jemison deeply appreciates the humanities. She also took lessons in modern dance at the Alvin Ailey school, writing that \u201cMany people do not see a connection between science and dance, but I consider them both to be expressions of the boundless creativity that people have to share with one another.\u201d<a id=\"ftnte2.1\"><\/a><sup><a href=\"#ftnte2\">2<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<p>Inspired by Sally Ride, she would go on to become the first Black woman in space, joining the crew of the <em>Endeavor<\/em> in 1992.

She continued with NASA for six years, but left to explore how social sciences interact with technologies. \u201cPeople always think of technology as something having silicon in it,\u201d she explains. \u201cBut a pencil is technology. Any language is technology.
