For our and in the and series, please meet Margaret Hamilton, one of the early , writing code by hand, some 50 years ago. In an industry dominated by men, in a time when women were not encouraged to go into STEM, in a time that cracking into the male-dominated NASA, she persevered. And because of her relentlessness, because of her not giving up on her own dreams, because of her passion for her work, she persevered, and NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration was rewarded with what was needed to take its Apollo missions to the Moon.
If we are to look up to others for inspiration and motivation to staying our course, to pursuing a career in an industry that our current society and culture and biases tell us that we, whoever "we" are, don't belong, I encourage you to look to Margaret Hamilton.
From Wikipedia:

Role models and representation matter. It is easier to see yourself in a role if you see someone like yourself doing that job, running that company, e.g., writing code for NASA when women were not encouraged, allowed, or even accepted into science programs at most universities, scientific discussion circles, and even less, into the scientific, data-driven, male-dominated engineering organizations.
