About the Author

Laura L Mays Hoopes, Halstead-Bent Professor of Biology and Molecular Biology Emerita at Pomona College in Claremont, CA is a strong believer that women can “have it all”—both family and science career.  Her memoir, Breaking Through the Spiral Ceiling: An American Woman Becomes a DNA Scientist, is in its second edition.  Now she turns to lives of women at the very top level of science in the USA, women who made major discoveries, hold university chairs, and contend for prestigious scientific prizes.  These women too can successfully marry and have children, as shown by the two profiled in this new dual biography.
