Excerpt: 

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.

Annotation: 

Collection of biographies of women mathematicians, searchable and browsable alphabetically or chronologically. Biographies are brief, and often contain photos or drawings, as well as links to interviews or other related online resources. There is also a listing of a number of sites about women in the sciences.
