Betty Brake

Betty Brake had a BS in chemistry and was the only female member of the technical staff in her organization when she came to work at Sandia in 1955. Brake says the hardest thing about being a working mother at the time was that "nobody had heard of childcare." She and co-worker Philip Class are shown here using the thermalog computer for a heat transfer study.
