      Elizabeth was born in South Dakota & was fluent in the Sioux language. She earned a B.A from @StKate in 1933. March 1947: Elizabeth joined our predecessor, the Central Intelligence Group (CIG), as a shorthand stenographer.pic.twitter.com/x9Gh5I8a7F

      CIA replaced CIG in Sept 1947 & Elizabeth became a charter member. In 1951 she transferred to our clandestine service where during her 1st assignment Elizabeth proved women could operate securely in an intense counterintelligence environment.

          Despite success, she was passed over for promotion for years. Appreciation of reports officers eventually grew, due to people like Elizabeth. 1972: Elizabeth took mandatory retirement; 1989: she passed away. 2013 she was named a CIA Trailblazer. http://1.usa.gov/1h1Uqd0 pic.twitter.com/uTB7EJqF7Y
