- African_American_women_in_computer_science abstract "Early pioneers in computing were African American women, such as Katherine Johnson, who was hired by NASA and worked on the flight path for the first mission into space in 1961. Though she co-authored 26 scientific papers, the practice in 1960 was to not list the female contributors as formal co-authors. Thus, the fact that she was listed as an author in a peer-reviewed NASA report is significant. In addition to the contributions of Katherine Johnson, there were African American women, such as the ENIAC programmers who programmed the first digital computer for the US Army, whose stories were (and are still) lost. Given the dearth of information regarding the contributions of women in early computer science, it is reasonable to believe that in addition to the contributions of Katherine Johnson, there are other African American women whose stories have been lost; though they have made significant contributions to computer science and society.Though the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) was founded in 1947 it was not until 1969 that Clarence \"Skip\" Ellis became the first African American to earn a doctorate degree in Computer Science. It was not until 10 years later that an African American women earned a doctorate in Computer Science. One of the first women to have earned a doctorate degree in Computer Science was Marsha R. Williams who obtained her degree from Vanderbilt University in 1982.In the mid-1980s, the representation of women in Computer Science peaked at approximately 40%. The decline in the representation of women has been attributed to the increased marketing of personal computers and video games to boys. Though there has been a decline in women of different races in the United States, the representation of African American women has remained consistently lower than that of their female peers. For example, in 1985 when the number of women in computing was at a high, 77% of the degrees were earned by White women while fewer than 8% were earned by African American women. In 2002, 1.3% of the doctorate degrees earned were awarded to African American women.".
