Mary Cartwright, English mathematician & academic, one of the first people to analyze a dynamical system with chaos, was born #OTD in 1900.
Along with J. E. Littlewood, Cartwright saw many solutions to a problem which would later be seen as an example of the butterfly effect. In 1947, she was elected to be a Fellow of the Royal Society; although she was not the first woman to be elected to that Society, she was the first female mathematician.
