Susan kathy kleiman, your new book began with the photograph. We are going to look at that photograph. Tell me what it was that intrigued you. Kathy i was in Computer Science courses. The early courses mixed men and women, but the upper courses were almost all men, sometimes completely men. This photograph was intriguing because it has men and women in the picture. I thought that is interesting. Who are the women . The two in the front the visionary of eniac led the construction of building it. Who are the women . I wanted to know, because if they did something technical, i wanted to know.
