<p>During March, we honor Women’s History Month to celebrate the contributions women have made throughout history in science, politics, law, sports, the arts, entertainment, and many other fields. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Harriet Tubman, Amelia Earhart, Eleanor Roosevelt, Margaret Thatcher, and Betty Friedan are often associated with Women&#x27;s History Month, but there are many more extraordinary women who have earned their places at the table. Consider inventor/actress Hedy Lamarr, scientist Dian Fossey, mathematician Katherine Johnson, astronauts Sally Ride and Mae C. Jemison, authors Maya Angelou and Amy Tan, and contemporary directors Kathryn Bigelow and Ava DuVernay. Explore biographies, videos and articles that celebrate all of these women&#x27;s historic achievements. </p>
