Katherine Johnson( NASA mathematician/Hidden figures film) has died.

[eenymeenyminybo]

She was an inspirational woman who overcame both racial and gender stereotypes to become a top mathematician at NASA.

I was just reading about her eeny what an incredible woman, and a brilliant mathematician. She was 101.
I remember a long time ago there was a thread in FWR ( I think) about amazing women. I don't think she is as recognised as she deserves.
