Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later.

Physicist/chemist Katharine Burr Blodgett invented non-reflective glass in 1938.

It revolutionized optics & led to the coatings used today in everything from eyeglasses to phone screens. First woman to earn a PhD in #physics from Cambridge, 1926. She was born #OTD in 1898. #WomenInSTEM #inventor
