Attended a course by her at the Navy Yard in DC. Every one in attendance was totally enthralled. Smoked continuously. My first computer course. She passed out a small gauge wire about nine inches long and said that was the limiting factor in speed by a computer. Microelectronics solved that problem with a couple other advancements. Great lady.

Really interesting, one other on here said he'd attended one of her lectures and apparently knew her, many thanks.
