Kurt Beyer Radio Interview on Grace Hopper

Here's a great radio interview with Kurt Beyer regarding his book that I read about Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, USN. She faced a ton of challenges as the pioneer of computer programming, and she was a key developer of the COBOL programming language which is still heavily used.

Kurt Beyer and I are from the same hometown and went to the same military college, where he was the highest ranking Midshipman my junior year. He caught my eye, again, when I read his excellent book about Grace Hopper.
