Session
A Short History of Women in Media and Technology
Wednesday, December 7th • 1:00pm — 1:30pm PDT
Lisa Napoli will discuss the history of women in media and technology from her experience including the New York Times CyberTimes, MSNBC, and the public radio show Marketplace, covering everything from presidential campaigns, artists in Los Angeles, the Waco hostage standoff, an outdoor hacker convention, and the then-emerging culture of the Internet and digital technology. And the unusual job as a producer at a pre-Internet home shopping network in New York called Q2. Lisa will discuss the history of women in tech and why we should be excited about 2023 and beyond.
