Interesting the WITI address where Kay Antonelli was inducted into the
WITI HOF was made by Linda Sanford (IBM). The generations are tied
together in many ways.  

Kathleen McNulty Mauchley Antonelli
12 February 1921 - 20 April 2006
Sadly, one of the mothers of computing has passed away. Kay McNulty was
a mathematics major when she graduated from Chestnut Hill College in
1942. That summer she answered a WOMEN WANTED! ad placed by the US
government, and then spent several years as one of the women computers
who calculated trajectories for the war effort, working at the Moore
School of Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania.
