One woman's amazing life
- lutusp 14y agoThis is a wonderful story. It should be presented to every young woman at an age when she's wondering what she wants to do with her life -- an age when many young women believe technical skill equals geekiness. Hedy Lamarr combined many universally respected qualities -- beauty, intellect, inventiveness and the capacity to see her ideas though to completion. There are many similar stories (Grace Murray Hopper and Ada Lovelace come to mind), but Hedy Lamarr's passion to right the world's wrongs, and her ability to use science and technology in furtherance of those goals, deserves a special place in history.
