Marlyn Meltzer was one of the original programmers for the ENIAC computer. She was born Marlyn Wescoff and graduated from Temple University in 1942. She was hired by the Moore School of Engineering later that year to perform weather calculations, mainly because she knew how to operate an adding machine; in 1943, she was hired to perform calculations for ballistics trajectories. In 1945, she was selected to become one of the first group of ENIAC programmers.

  • Marlyn Meltzer was one of the original programmers for the ENIAC computer. She was born Marlyn Wescoff and graduated from Temple University in 1942. She was hired by the Moore School of Engineering later that year to perform weather calculations, mainly because she knew how to operate an adding machine; in 1943, she was hired to perform calculations for ballistics trajectories. In 1945, she was selected to become one of the first group of ENIAC programmers. She resigned from the team in 1947 to get married before ENIAC was relocated to the Aberdeen Proving Grounds. In 1997 she was inducted into the Women in Technology International Hall of Fame, along with the other original ENIAC programmers
  • Marlyn Wescoff Meltzer fue una de las seis programadoras originales de la computadora ENIAC. Graduada en la Temple University en 1942, fue contratada por el Moore School of Engineering a finales de ese año para trabajar en cálculos meteorológicos, principalmente porque ya sabía operar máquinas de calcular. En 1943 se sumó al equipo de cálculo de trayectorias balísticas. Fue en 1945 cuando su nombre se sumó a la lista de seis mujeres que trabajaron originalmente en la programación de la máquina ENIAC. Renunció en 1947 para contraer matrimonio antes de que la ENIAC fuera relocalizada en Aberdeen Proving Grounds. En 1997, junto al de sus cinco colegas, su nombre fue incluido en el Women in Technology International Hall of Fame, por su trabajo en la programación oficinal de la ENIAC.
