Another "code fore-mother" was Ada Lovelace (who also had the distinction of having Lord Byron as a father): http://www.computerhistory.org/babbage/adalovelace/ I've been doing the CS 101 course from Udacity with my 7 year old son, where I just recently learned about Ada Lovelace and Grace Hopper. Grace Hopper was even on Letterman: http://www.myvidster.com/video/425708/Grace_Hopper_on_Letterman On Fri, Dec 7, 2012 at 7:34 AM, Jacobs, Jane W <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > I've been lurking on this thread, but I really like the poster and the theme it embodies. I think it would also be great to acknowledge our code fore-mother, Henriette Avram (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henriette_Avram) Unfortunately, a quick Google didn't spot any photos of her with a mainframe.
