Signs by Beth Building Sketch – 8″ x 10″

painting. I wanted to get involved in the sock monkey project and do my
building, too. I am tickled with my jeep. I never dreamed I’d be able

About Grace Murray Hopper
Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper, the American computer pioneer, was
the first woman to become a Distinguished Fellow of the British Computer
Society. She was born in 1906 in New York. By age seven, she was taking
alarm clocks apart to see how they worked. She worked for the U.S. Navy
developing the first compiler, which allowed people to write computer
programs in real language rather than machine code. When she found a
moth inside a computer, she coined the term “debugging.” She died in
1992.
