Contrary to the myth that women don't get into mathematics, there are a number of women who have become mathematicians. A few of them, past and present, are Grace Murray Hopper (who was also a computer scientist); Olive Hazlett (whose expertise was in algebra); Euphemia Lofton Haynes (the first black woman to get a PhD in Mathematics, in 1943); Sun-Yung Alice Chang (whose expertise is in differential equations and differential geometry); and Lenore Blum (who has expertise in both computer science and mathematics).
