PLUS: a brief history of cybersex, Congress's complicity in fueling antibiotic resistance, and how startup-style thinking saved the Golden State Warriors. View this email in your browser logo 12.27.17 It's no secret that women in tech are often forced into unfortunate situations, whether they're harassed, overlooked, or simply ignored—and that's been the case for decades. From the programmers of the first digital computer during WWII to the NASA mathematicians featured in Hidden Figures, the women who shaped today's tech landscape are finally having their stories told. And now another long-overlooked woman technologist is getting recognition, this time for her pioneering work in cryptology. Elizebeth Smith Friedman's husband has been hailed as a father of modern cryptanalysis, but she, too, was an expert codebreaker. Reporter Jason Fagone gained access to her papers—previously confiscated by the NSA because of the classified information contained within—and has written a vivid chronicle of her life's work. As he details in this excerpt, Smith Friedman led World War II–era efforts to catch Nazi and Japanese spies in the US, including the infamous "Doll Lady"—a win for which the FBI took total credit. "When the Doll Lady case was over, the conviction won, the FBI, as always, informed the press of its heroism," Fagone writes. "Elizebeth was not mentioned in the coverage."

Einstein's Little-Known Passion Project?
