The Biographies of Women Mathematicians website is "part of an on-going project by students in mathematics classes at Agnes Scott College, in Atlanta, Georgia, to illustrate the numerous achievements of women in the field of mathematics." Biographical essays or comments on most of the women mathematicians and some photos are posted here. Over 150 names are currently listed and more are being added as the project continues. The mathematicians are listed alphabetically and chronologically or can be searched by keyword or name. They also list the names of First Ph.D's in Mathematics by Women before 1930 and Prizes, Awards and Honors for Women Mathematicians, and an extensive list of other Internet resources on women mathematicians and scientists. Contributions of biographical information or essays from those outside Agnes Scott College are also welcomed.
