Ida Rhodes at IBM,1960

Filming of Ida Rhodes (left) at IBM. Rhodes demonstrates her pioneering work in computer translation of languages. Ida Rhodes (May 15, 1900 - February 1, 1986) was an American mathematician. Rhodes was a pioneer in the analysis of systems of programming, and with Betty Holberton designed the C-10 programming language in the early 1950s for the UNIVAC I. She also designed the original computer used for the Social Security Administration. Though she retired in 1964, Rhodes continued to consult for the Applied Mathematics Division of the National Bureau of Standards until 1971. Her work became much more widely known after her retirement, as she took the occasion to travel around the globe, lecturing and maintaining international correspondence. No photographer credited, November 16, 1960.
