Picturing Women Inventors
The Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) and the Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation joined forces to bring you Picturing Women Inventors.

Created with the generous support from the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Lyda Hill Philanthropies IF/THEN Initiative and Ericsson, Picturing Women Inventors is a series of posters that explores the inventions of 19 highly accomplished American women.  Astronauts, computer pioneers, and businesswomen join athletes, engineers, and even teenagers in this remarkable group of inventors. 

The stories on these posters illustrate that the creativity of women inventors ranges across diverse backgrounds and interests throughout American history.
