Wheelis describes her childhood in Texas, her family and her father's farm work during the Great Depression. After high school, Wheelis began working and married. Although the marriage ended in divorce, her first husband encouraged her to fly and accumulate flight time. Having learned of the WASP program, Wheelis met with Jacqueling Cochran for her interview in Fort Worth, Texas, and reported for training at Avenger Field in Sweetwater, Texas. Wheelis describes her time in training, antics as a young pilot in various aircraft, and graduation. Wheelis was assigned as a ferry pilot to Romulus Army Air Field in Romulus, Michigan. She completed instrument training in St. Joseph, Missouri, where she had the opportunity to fly a B-25. Next, Wheelis completed pursuit school so she could fly the fighter planes. Prior to WASP deactivation in December of 1944, Wheelis resigned from her position and went back to work while pursuing her college education at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas.

Wheelis, who has helped many neurotic patients understand themselves and copewith trauma and obsession, now turns the exploratory lens on the dark cornersof his own life.
The Known, the Secret, the Forgotten
Crafted from slivers of reminiscence and reflection, Joan Wheelis’s beautifully written memoir explores the intricacies of attachment and the perils of love and inevitable loss. We glimpse the author’s childhood in San Francisco and her relationship with her distinguished psychoanalyst parents through a series of jewel-like vignettes. She explores her past through her questions about life and the lessons her parents taught her about the existence of God, how to cut a napoleon and build a fire, and the hazards of self-deception. Into this tapestry of memory Wheelis, also a psychoanalyst, weaves profound reflections from adulthood. Wrestling with the loss of her parents, the author faces the questions of what matters and what remains of their lives. She reckons with their histories and legacies, tracing the heritage of love and conflict through the generations. As she revisits the rooms and landscapes of her past, her prose takes on the poetic logic of memory itself.
