Launch Magazine's History of American Rocketry

Auteur

Mark Mayfield is an instructor on the faculty of The University of Alabama’s Department of Journalism and Creative Media. Before his work at UA, he had a long career in the magazine and newspaper industries—he is a former editor-in-chief of House Beautiful, Traditional Home, Southern Accents, and Art & Antiques magazines. He founded LAUNCH Magazine in 2006 due to an interest in spaceflight developed from his earlier years as a reporter covering NASA launches. Mayfield worked as a reporter for 10 years at USA Today and before that as a journalist for United Press International. He is an author/co-author of five books, including Miracle Moments in Alabama Crimson Tide Football History (Sports Publishing/Skyhorse, 2018), Back on Top! The Alabama Crimson Tide’s 2015-16 Championship Football Season (Sports Publishing/Skyhorse, 2015), Crimson Domination: The Process Behind Alabama’s 15th National Championship (Whitman Books, 2013), The Spaceflight Vault: A History of NASA’s Manned Missions (Whitman Books, 2010), and Southern Style (Bulfinch/Little Brown, 1998).
