This is a series of caches that I was inspired to create by Red_Family's series of Homburg caches called Grosse Namen and Ich Trage Einen Grossen Namen.
Each of the people in this series were born (MADE) in Germany. Later in life they immigrated to the USA and became citizens of America. Many of them had a great influence on the USA and the rest of the world. I hope that each person who completes this series learns a little bit more about how our two countries, German and The United States of America, are forever connected.
HINT:
I am woman.
I was born in Schiesen when it was part of the German Empire.
I am dead.
Too Difficult? Maybe this will help:
I moved to the United States in the 1930's after marrying my American husband.
The American Physical Society gives a monetary award to every year in my name.
A crater on Venus is named after me.
Do you know who I am now? No?
I was awarded a Nobel prize for my research.
Even though I held a Ph.D, due to sexism I had a difficult time finding work in my field.
In 1960 I finally became a full professor at University of California at San Diego.
You can find the final at:
