I just saw the most amazing film about Grace Hopper. It was titled Grace Hopper: The Queen of Code and directed by Gillian Jacobs of Community fame.

She really is my hero. A computer programmer, inventor of languages,  and a smart woman who would not let things be done the way they’ve always been done. She changed our world forever. We cannot let her be forgotten.

Go Watch It Now!

As a geeky little girl, having role models like her and the other early female programmers meant the world to me.
