"Overnight Code is a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration to overcome social barriers and to shatter glass ceilings." —Carolyn Porter, Marcel's Letters: A Font and the Search for One Man's Fate The inspiring story of a groundbreaking African American female engineer who created the first computer-designed ship for the US Navy Raye Montague was an ambitious little girl in segregated Little Rock. She grew to be a woman who spent a lifetime educating herself, both inside and outside of the classroom, so that she could become the person and professional she aspired to be. Where some saw roadblocks, Montague only saw hurdles that needed to be overcome. Her mindset helped her become the first person to draft a Naval ship design by computer, using a program she worked late nights to debug. She did this as a single mother during the height of the Cold War, all the while imbuing her son with the hard-won wisdom she had accumulated throughout the years. Equal parts coming-of-age tale, civil rights history, and reflection on the power of education, Overnight Code is a tale about persistence and perseverance when the odds against you seem insurmountable.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Raye Means was a college graduate who wanted to pursue a career in engineering, but she was barred from doing so because of her race. She ended up working as a clerk-typist for the Applied Mathematics Lab, which was staffed with engineers who seemed to consider their position a birthright. #2 Raye Means was born in 1935 in Arkansas. She was the wind beneath her wings, as she described it, because her mother had to fight for everything she got. The Great Depression had already taken its toll on the state, and the Mississippi River Flood of 1927 had left it with little. #3 The Jordans had a restaurant and a house, which they had completely furnished on credit. Unfortunately, they fell prey to the financial hell that had engulfed everyone around them. They lost everything they had, including the Radio Lounge. #4 Raye’s childhood was full of fun and games with her family. She grew up in a rented four-room bungalow with a refrigerator and a telephone, both of which were rare for the time. The telephone had a party line, which meant that there were three or four people in the neighborhood who had the same phone number.
