editI have just corrected the "Named After" field based on the official Minor Planet Center citation:
The following citation is from MPC 41936:
(9022) Drake = 1988 PC1
Michael J. Drake (b. 1946), popular director of the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory and president of the Meteoritical Society, is a professor and researcher in cosmochemistry and geochemistry who studies the evolution of the earth, moon, igneous meteorites and other terrestrial planetary bodies.
(Frank Drake may have an asteroid as well but this one is Mike Drake's.)
