Thanks for the picture.  She was an amazing woman.  I bought the movie on DVD and there is a write-up and a picture of her inside the package.  Those women were geniuses.

"Hidden Figures" is one of my favorite movies - those women were beyond inspirational.

That was a good movie!  And seeing the real Ms. Johnson still going strong at 100--AWESOME!
