Maryam Mirzakhani - BostonCard - 02-25-2021

Mirzakhani was a professor of math at Stanford who could accurately have been labeled a true genius.  She won the Fields Medal (the Nobel Prize equivalent for mathematics) at age 37.  Unfortunately, she died of breast cancer a few years ago at age 40. 

I just found out there is a documentary about her:
