Women in STEM History - Virginia (Ginny) Strazisar Travers

Today's Woman in STEM is Virginia (Ginny) Strazisar Travers. She was working for the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) during the "bread truck" packet swtiching wireless San Francisco experiment and is credited with developing the first true TCP/IP router in 1979. The Computer History Museum wrote an excellent article on these events on the 40th anniversary in 2017, found here, and also created an excellent panel interview with Virgina Strazisar Travers and others on the 30th anniversary in 2007 available on Youtube (and embedded below.)
