Michelle da Silva Richmond

Michelle da Silva Richmond is the author of the recently published memoir, Fleeting Moments, a thrilling account of her life as a Pan Am flight attendant when travel meant glamorous stewardesses, exotic locales and the thrill of the launch of the 747. Added to that is a poignant love story with two men on two continents and the choices she was forced to make along the way. Fleeting Moments takes readers on a powerful and evocative journey which will transport you to another time and place, stirring a longing for days gone by with the nostalgic pull of Rome, a city that never leaves her. An award-winning travel editor and member of the Society of American Travel Writers, American Society of Journalists and Authors and New York Travel Writers Association, her articles have appeared in print and digital publications around the world. Her international upbringing sparked an early passion for travel, later enriched by her Pan Am experience during the Golden Age of air travel.
