Happy Birthday to Claude Shannon, known by many as the “father of Information Theory.” Shannon was an American mathematician and electrical engineer. In 1948, he published A Mathematical Theory of Communication, which effectively created the field.

Hugely sad news; it was a privilege to work with Vicki through various ACM roles over the past 10 years. She will be missed.
Association for Computing Machinery@TheOfficialACM

ACM mourns the loss of former CEO and President Vicki L. Hanson. Vicki was a pioneer in accessibility research and a tireless advocate for inclusion in computing. From her over 25 years as a volunteer to her leadership as CEO, her impact on our community is immeasurable. She will be greatly missed.
