The Artist and the Astronaut
We haven’t talked very much about a rather large project that Todd and the team are working on. A major motion picture takes a long time to birth. But, we decided to keep you in the loop, because it is so exciting.
Jerry Carr was one of America’s first Astronauts. His career with NASA was stellar. He was the CapCom on many of the Apollo missions and one of the very first skylab pilots.

His work after his retirement from NASA was just as impressive. He teamed up with his wife, Pat Musick, to create some of the most impressive sculptures in American Art, matching his genius for engineering with her creative artistic vision.
The documentary is in its final stages of post-production at Hobin Studios. Todd is writing the score. The film is the brainchild of William Muench, an independent producer working out of New England.
Last week, Todd met via zoom with many of the people involved with the production, including Pat Musick, Jeff Carr (Jerry’s son), and Andrew Chaikin https://www.andrewchaikin.com/
We’ll keep you posted on the production’s progress and share some scenes, and any breaking news before it breaks.
