Michael Kearney, President and Chief Executive Officer of Space City's very own SPACEHAB, Inc., has been recently profiled in the Southwest Airline Spirit Magazine A Freedom Story. Because of this aerospace mogul's uncanny connection to the little airline that could, its official magazine decided to feature Kearney in November's Winter Travel 2004 issue. The magazine, which reaches nearly 73 million passengers per year, features stories from business travel and vacation hot-spots to culinary delights and celebrity profiles. So, what does Mr. Kearney think about his new found fame? "Well, I'm thrilled. It's a real honor to be featured in a magazine that has such a diverse and expansive readership. Also, it's not too bad to be a Mr. November once in your life!"
