She was 101. Both Brilliant and a Very Pretty Woman. Class Act and an inspiration to all women. What an incredible story. We are fortunate that she shared her excellence with a generation.

Katherine Johnson, pioneering NASA mathematician portrayed in Hidden Figures, dies at 101Johnson was one of the so-called ‘computers’ who calculated rocket trajectories and earth orbits by hand during NASA’s early years What a legend!! I'm deeply moved by the contribution of women in the work force especially women who are so out numbered in their field. I'm one of only a handful of women in my industry compared to men. We need more strong women in our world.
