Mary Kenneth Keller, B.V.M. was an American Roman Catholic sister, educator and pioneer in computer science. She was the first woman to earn a Ph.D. in computer science in the United States.
Sister Mary Kenneth Keller earned her doctorate from the University of Wisconsin on June 7, 1965 — and was aced out of being the first person to earn the degree in the U.S. by a few hours. (That milestone belongs to Irving C. Tang, who completed his studies at Washington University in St. Louis.) Keller’s dissertation was titled “Inductive Inference on Computer Generated Patterns.”
