Jordan D. Marche II is a lecturer in astronomy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He holds a M.A.T. in planetarium education from Michigan State University and a Ph.D. in the history and philosophy of science from Indiana University.
Marche carefully shows how local and national interests produced the first five major American planetarium theaters - in Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, New York, and Pittsburgh - as well as hundreds of smaller ones - in Pennsylvania schools and in other locations around the country. The millions of people who have found education or entertainment in a planetarium will find great background reading in Theaters of Time and Space! - Dr. Marvin Bolt, director, History of Astronomy Department, Adler Planetarium & Astronomy Museum, Chicago
