This video provides an opportunity to hear and learn the hidden history of the period and confirm that Ada Lovelace and Grace Hopper were not the only female contributors to the rich history of computing! These pioneers remain role models for women in computing today." Lot number: X6636.2013 Catalog number: 102624774
