In Rachel Ignotofsky’s “Women in Science” series, the designer and illustrator celebrates female pioneers in STEM with her beautiful and detailed illustrations. We are, of course, especially partial to her amazing illustration of computer scientist Grace Hopper featured here.
Ignotofsky strives to complete 50 illustrations, hoping to shine the spotlight on women who, although they may not have been well known, made contributions that changed our world for the better.
Update – Ignotofsky has gone on to write and illustrate additional books – including one about “The History of the Computer.”
With everything she creates – Ignotofsky strives to celebrate science and inspire the next generation of bright minds!
