Before she was a global icon, Mary Jackson was a segregated "human computer," calculating the future while constrained by Jim Crow. This definitive biography chronicles the fifty-year journey of NASA's first Black female engineer. Driven by unrelenting moral courage, Jackson fought the courts for the right to attend all-white classes, securing her historic promotion in 1958. Yet, her greatest challenge was a profound career pivot: she voluntarily left her prestigious engineering title to work in Human Resources. There, she applied her rigorous, analytical mind to the internal mission of dismantling institutional bias. Jackson's life proves that the efficiency of science demands the equity of opportunity.
