Nope, Donna Shirley was the project manager according to her book "Managing Martians", detailing her heading the project at JPL, where she worked. I do not know her and she is retired from JPL. Maybe Tony Spear was a section director, above Shirley and more hands-off?

That's odd. JPL's Pathfinder site lists Tony Spear at the Project Manager ( http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/MPF/bios/team/spear1.html ). Could not find Shirley anywhere on the site so maybe Spear took over from her part way through the mission. All that aside, I just hope one of them will agree to speak in SLC. Clear skies! Patrick
