About this listen

Recoding History: The Audacious Women Who Shaped Our Digital World is an immersive look into the lives of some of computer history's most ingenious and audacious women. Pulling from the Computer History Museum’s archives and hosted by Reshma Saujani, the founder of Girls Who Code, listeners will learn and laugh along with these great minds as they recount their stories in their own words. In addition, Reshma and contributing experts help bring the women’s remarkable accomplishments to life and discuss their significance in the longer arc of technological history. In an era driven by technology and computing, Recoding History: The Audacious Women Who Shaped Our Digital World spotlights lesser-known figures whose work continues to impact our daily lives–and reminds listeners that in order to build a brighter future, inclusion and innovation must go hand-in-hand.
