+Did you know that the lead plaintiff in the US Supreme Court case that
+overturned Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) in 2013, leading to
+marriage being expanded to include same-sex couples, was a systems programmer
+at IBM and then a software development consultant in her own company?
+
+Edith (Edie) Schlain was born in 1929 in Philadelphia. She graduated from
+Temple in 1950, where she met her future husband, Saul Windsor, who she married
+in 1951 and divorced in 1952. She later earned a master's in math from NYU in 1957.
+She then joined IBM, where she worked for 16 years in senior technical
+and management positions related to systems architecture and implementation of
+operating systems and language processors. As AnitaB.org
+[describes](https://anitab.org/profile/remembering-edith-windsor-tech-pioneer-equality-advocate/),
+she started as a mainframe programmer and later rose to "the company's highest
+technical rank, Senior Systems Programmer, on the strength of her top-notch
+debugging skills. 'They couldn't fix the code because they couldn't read it,'
+Edith told a journalist. 'But I could read code until it wrapped around the
+room and back again. A guy I was working with said, 'give this woman a roll of
+toilet paper, she can do anything.'" During this time, in 1963, she met and
+began dating Thea Spyer, who asked Edith to marry her in 1967, and they began
+living together six months later.
+
+In her professional life, as AnitaB.org [continues to
+describe](https://anitab.org/profile/remembering-edith-windsor-tech-pioneer-equality-advocate/),
+"Edith left IBM in 1975, becoming the founding president of PC Classics, a
+consulting firm specializing in major software development projects. During
+this time, Edith also helped countless LGBTQ groups become tech literate. 'I
+computerized everybody,' she quipped. 'I got calls from gay organizations that
+wanted to computerize their mail systems. All of my IBM experience continues
+throughout my life.' Her love of computing was personal, too — she was the
+owner of the very first IBM-PC delivered in New York City." In 1993, when New
+York City first began registering domestic partnerships between same-sex
+couples, they registered. Because the US did not allow same-sex marriage, they
+traveled to Toronto in 2007 where they were married. Two years later, Thea
+died, and left her estate to Edie, but because the US did not recognize their
+marriage, Edie had to pay taxes on the estate. This was the cause of her
+lawsuit that led to Section 3 of DOMA being ruled unconstitutional, enabling
+same sex marriage to become legal, after which the US government refunded the
+estate tax.
+
+Again
+[quoting](https://anitab.org/profile/remembering-edith-windsor-tech-pioneer-equality-advocate/)
+AnitaB.org, "Edith was recognized by the National Computing Conference as an
+operating systems pioneer. In 2013, she was the Grand Marshal of the New York
+City LGBT Pride March and a runner-up for Time's Person of the Year." She died
+in 2017, and was eulogized by Hillary Clinton. Barack Obama said about her,
+"America's long journey towards equality has been guided by countless small
+acts of persistence, and fueled by the stubborn willingness of quiet heroes to
+speak out for what's right. Few were as small in stature as Edith Windsor — and
+few made as big a difference to America."
