There are countless stories of the contributions that women have made in science, technology, culture, arts, etc, that have fallen through the cracks. Female pilots of WWII only recently acknowledged. The women who invented computer programs, as well as those who were human computers before machine computing came into existence. There's a treasure trove of such stories waiting to be mined. I have one I'm working on, the first woman to circumnavigate the world. A really fascinating tale inasmuch as she had to disguise herself as a man among a crew of men.
