   Extractions: Welcome to the web page for biographies of women in mathematics. These pages are part of an on-going project by students in mathematics classes at Agnes Scott College, in Atlanta, Georgia, to illustrate the numerous achievements of women in the field of mathematics. There are biographical essays or comments on most of the women mathematicians and some photos (which look best at more than 256 colors). Our goal is for this list to continue to expand, and for more biographies to be completed. We also welcome contributions of biographical information or essays from those outside Agnes Scott College. If you are interested in contributing an essay, please send your contribution to Larry Riddle . Comments, suggestions, or corrections can also be sent to this address. To increase awareness of women's ongoing contributions to the mathematical sciences, the Association of Women in Mathematics is sponsoring an essay contest for biographies of contemporary women mathematicians and statisticians in academic, industrial, and government careers. This contest is open to students in the following categories: Middle School, High School, Undergraduate, and Graduate. The contest deadline is October 31, 2003. For more information and to see the results of the 2002 Essay Contest, go to
