The White House provides this website, a set of largely unknown stories
of female pioneers in the science, technology, engineering and math
(STEM) fields, dating from the 19th to the 21st centuries. Examples
include Ada Lovelace (1815-1852) who, in 1843, wrote the first computer
algorithm for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine. Lovelace's story is
read by U.S. Chief Technology Officer, Megan Smith. Other women in STEM
who appear on the site are astronaut and physicist Sally Ride,
environmentalist Rachel Carson, molecular biologist and Chief Scientific
Officer (CSO) at Cytonome/ST Lydia Villa-Komaroff, and geneticist
Barbara McClintock, the only woman to win an unshared Nobel Prize for
her work. With women from across the Administration sharing stories of
their personal heroes, this website is intended to inspire girls to go
into the STEM fields. Visitors are also invited to share what they are
doing in their own communities to inspire young women to pursue careers
in science and technology.
