Why Is Gabrielle Donnay Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Gabrielle Donnay, née Hamburger , was a German-born American crystallographer and historian of science. Life Gabrielle Donnay was born in Landeshut, Germany on 21 March 1920 and emigrated to the United States in 1937. She received her B.A. from UCLA with highest honors in chemistry in 1941 and was awarded her Ph.D in 1949 from MIT. She then went to work for Carnegie Institution of Washington where she met and married Jose Donnay that same year. When he retired from Johns Hopkins in 1970, she was hired as a faculty member by McGill University in Canada.
