About this Event

Elizabeth (Betty) Wood was a participant in the first Picturephone call in 1964 between Lady Bird Johnson and herself at Bell Labs.

Why did she receive this honor and what is a Picturephone?

These interesting questions and more will be answered in a lively virtual program presented by Dr. Margaret Schott of Northwestern University as she shares insights and anecdotes about Bell Labs' first woman scientist.

This program is in collaboration with Morven's exhibition Ma Bell: The Mother of Invention in New Jersey and in celebration of Women's History Month
