The #CSforALLie Summit Logo
Our summit logo is in memory of Kay McNulty (12 February, 1921 – 20 April 2006)
Kathleen "Kay" McNulty Mauchly Antonelli was born in Co. Donegal. Her family emigrated when she was aged 2 and relocated to Pennsylvania, USA.
Kay was one of a team of six women who programmed the ENIAC computer in 1946.
ENIAC (the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) was the world's first fully electronic general-purpose computer. The team of six, Kay included, went on to work on the UNIVAC - Jean Bartik, Betty Holberton, Marlyn Wescoff, Kathleen McNulty, Ruth Teitelbaum and Frances Spence.
