Her work was brilliant and creative and opened whole new subfields of analysis and physics. She accomplished that in the face of all the typical, unfortunate obstacles for a woman of her generation. It's a phenomenal achievement finally recognized with the highest award in math!
Dr. Karen Uhlenbeck was recognized for her fundamental work in geometry and analysis, becoming the first woman to earn the prestigious mathematics Abel Prize. Congratulations! #WomensHistoryMonthhttps://twitter.com/NYTScience/status/1108372337743806466 …

They should give posthumous Abels to all the ladies who did math for computers, NASA etc in the past. Their credit has gone to men or they've been forgotten.

Funny that you mention the women of NASA right now, as my artist friend Maggie announced today that her first children’s book is being published. She’s an amazing artist and the book looks great! https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/312/312362/the-extraordinary-life-of-katherine-johnson/9780241375440.html …pic.twitter.com/V6aX6Q9dW8

As parents, we should make an effort to find notable people like this, weekly, and hang their pictures and a short bio on the refrigerator. Imagine the sheer range of possibility and promise you'd bring to your children.
