"Like so many enterprising women, her career is almost undocumented, but ranges from a divorce in the USA (believed to be the first that cited computers as the cause of the break-up) inspiring her to move to London, where in 1969 she became the first woman to edit a computer weekly publication, 'Dataweek'."
