4000 Years of Women in Science Photograph References

We now have some photographs of our own to present! If you would like to see more start with this display of thumb nail (small) photos from which you can jump to the larger images.


If anyone knows of other photographs of these women, please let us know. We would like to credit any photographs we use.

We will include photographs when we acquire them and are aware of their pedigree.

If you know of photographs which we may copy over here and incorporate with the biographies without violating copyright law, let us know.

In addition, we offer these links to photographs and other images.

We have had some request for sources of line drawings of these women that students can use in their classrooms. We don't have any copyright-free portraits but we do know of one source which allows limited reproduction for classroom use. We offer this address as a service only and have no connection with the company. Here is the cover of their publication on Women Mathematicians.
