Born June 10, 1950, in Lansingburgh, New York, Linda Alison Langworthy was an All-Area All-State chorus singer, participated in the Girl Scouts, and graduated cum laude from Lansingburgh High School in 1968. She graduated from Hudson Valley Community College Nursing School after receiving a scholarship as part of a pilot program to test whether those with cerebral palsy could qualify as nurses.
She was a voracious reader and frequented Richards Library, often borrowing up to 200 books a year. An original Trekker, she held passionate viewpoints about religion and politics, was completely devoted to family, friends, and her faith, and fiercely proud of her Irish heritage.
She passed away peacefully at the age of 68, following a courageous battle with cancer, on Monday, October 29, 2018, surrounded by members of her loving family. Destiny in the Future is her only book, published posthumously to raise cancer awareness.
"Damn you, Captain Russell! I'll love whomever I wish!"
In May 1968, a 17-year-old high school girl is whisked suddenly into the 23rd century.
In October 2018, her story is discovered.
Originally written fifty years ago but never before seen in print, Destiny in the Future is a story inspired by one of the most influential science fiction TV shows in history—just before it was cancelled.
Part romance, part social commentary, this book is meant as a posthumous tribute to its author, whose personality shaped and was shaped by tumultuous events of a changing American society—to boldly go where no "girl" had gone before.
All proceeds from this book will be donated to the
American Cancer Society in Linda A Langworthy's name.
