Overview

Six young women programmed the world's first all-electronic programmable computer, ENIAC, as part of a secret US WWII project.

These pioneers deserve to be known and celebrated: Betty Snyder Holberton, Jean Jennings Barik, Kay McNulty Mauchly Antonelli, Marlyn Wescoff Meltzer, Ruth Lichterman Teitelbaum, and Frances Bilas Spence.
