Annie Glenn, the wife of the late astronaut and U.S. Sen. John Glenn, is turning 100 Monday and is doing fine, a spokesman said.
But she is eschewing the media spotlight that shone on her and her husband for nearly six decades.
The Glenn family is appreciative of the continued affection and interest toward Annie. She is well but is no longer doing interviews, Hank Wilson, a spokesman for the John Glenn College of Public Affairs at Ohio State University, said in an email.

Huh? I doubt I’ve seen even one sentence written about her.
Your sentence is the first.
John Glenn went from a Hero to an absolute ZERO.
Glenn was my hero until he went and joined the swamp.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ditto.
When he sold us out for another ride on the shuttle, I lost all respect for him.
Nope,no thanks. John Glenn was a Rat Party Swamp Creature...nothing more,and,most assuredly,nothing less.
I guess the question is:. Can we admire and honor achievements of people, even if they aren’t conservative?
Or, alternately, if they are too liberal for us politically, does that cancel out everything else they may have done in their lives?
He became nothing more than a space hitchhiker. Thumbing his way back to space with lots of quid pro iwannago.
And the Senior Senator from Chappaquiddick will always be nothing more than a pig who allowed his girlfriend of the moment to drown (or suffocate) slowly while he was on the phone with his political advisers.
tough crowd - geez.
Some here certainly have MORE of the right stuff, Marine Corps officer, jet fighter, aviator, Mercury Astronaut, circled the earth sitting on a rocket in a box the size of a commercial washing machine.
Righteousness is there for sure.
Anyone who makes it to a century deserves congratulations.
I agree. And his wife is 100. Happy Birthday, Annie.
Yea, and married to the same woman “UNTIL DEATH US DO PART”, 73 years! Maybe if he foresaw that the democrat party would become the party of Lenin and Stalin, he would have thought twice about it.
It doesn’t negate the serious brass ones he had, to do what he did. MIG Alley in Korea, sitting on a candle at the cape and getting blasted into space back when we really didn’t know what the fsck we were doing.
So, I’ll give him his due.

Dont forget the Clinton bribe to fly him on the Space Shuttle for not voting for conviction in the Senate for impeachment. Great american Hero.
Yea, I remember. Sad postscript. It sucks when the great ones fall from grace.
The Swamp is TOXIC!
Treason deserves no quarter. Her husband covered up the single greatest criminal actions of the Clintoon Regime for a payoff.
we will have to differ on our definition of TREASON -
