In the Jim Crow South, with a slide rule in her hand and a brilliant mind at her command, Dorothy Vaughan defied the limitations of her time. As a leader of the West Area Computing Unit at NASA, she and her team of brilliant Black women were the human engines of the Space Race-calculating trajectories and solving equations that would propel America to the stars.
But when the age of electronic computers dawned, Dorothy saw the future. With fierce determination, she taught herself and her team the complex FORTRAN programming language, ensuring their place in the dawning digital age.
Human Computer to NASA Programmer is the untold story of a quiet pioneer who fought for equality, mentored a generation of women, and helped build the future.
This book finally brings her incredible, inspiring legacy out of the shadows and into the light. Approx.164 pages, 28500 word count
