About the Author

Mar Hicks is a historian and scholar of technology whose work examines how gender, labor, and institutional power shape the development of computing. With a focus on Britain and the twentieth century, Hicks brings archival research and social history together to illuminate the people and policies behind technological change. Their writing connects the history of computing to broader questions about inequality, innovation, and the consequences of exclusion. Hicks is the author of Programmed Inequality: How Britain Discarded Women Technologists and Lost Its Edge in Computing (History of Computing), a landmark study of gender and technology.
