The Queens of Code

The Queens of Code will be presenting four talks about NSA’s Computing Women from the 60s, 70s, and 80s as part of the Cyber Center for Education & Innovation (CCEI) series on the NEPRIS platform. These computing pioneers contributed to early technology development and the national defense—a secret they’ve kept for over 50 years. The programs are free, NEPRIS registration is required. The talks are geared to middle and high school students, but all are welcomed.

June 4, 2020 - Meet the Queens of Code at 2:00 PM EST

June 11, 2020 - Pre-Queen stories about growing up as “smart girls” and our first experiences with early computers

Talks 3 and 4 will be scheduled later in the summer.

The Queens of Code’s article “First Encounters of a Binary Kind,” will be the cover story for the June issues of the IEEE Annals of the History of Computing Journal. The article shares the stories of twelve queens working with early computers at the National Security Agency.
