Mary Wallace "Wally" Funk is an American aviator, commercial astronaut, and Goodwill Ambassador who was born on February 1, 1939. She was a member of the Mercury 13 and the first female aviation safety investigator for the National Transportation Safety Board.
She was also the first female civilian flying instructor at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and the first female Federal Aviation Agency inspector. Funk broke John Glenn's 23-year record by being the oldest person to fly into space aboard Blue Origin's New Shepard spaceship during its suborbital mission on July 20, 2021.
