Bernice Steadman (July 9, 1925 - March 18, 2015) was an American pilot and businesswoman known for her intelligence and strong personality. She was one of thirteen women chosen to undergo the same testing as the Mercury 7 astronauts in the early 1960s, a group later referred to as the Mercury 13. Unfortunately, Steadman and the other women in the program were denied the opportunity to become astronauts due to their gender. Later in her career, she co-founded the International Women in Aviation and Space Museum in Ohio during the 1980s.
