In this week's episode we cover Hedy Lamarr's incredible life story. Katy teaches us all about Hedy's early life and how she fled from her first husband and his connections to Nazi Germany, how her persistence in speaking up for herself landed her a job in the U.S. film industry, and how she tinkered in her spare time, which lead to the invention of a crucial piece of technology. Here is the story of an icon who definitely has not received the recognition she deserved for how incredible her mind was.
