"Sonya Kovalevsky (1850-1891) was a Russian mathematician. She received her Ph.D from the University of Gottingen for her thesis on partial differential equations. In 1888 she won the Bodin Prize for her memoir on the rotation of a solid body about a fixed point." Excerpted from the Columbia Encyclopedia, 6th. Edition 2007
