EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment when Miss Annette Ashberry, a trailblazing engineer, addressed the esteemed Incorporated Society of Engineers in 1926. Born in 1894, Annette Ashberry defied societal norms and broke barriers as the first woman to speak before this prestigious organization. Her groundbreaking presence in the male-dominated field of engineering was a testament to her unwavering determination and intellectual prowess. Dressed in a formal suit and holding a stack of technical drawings, Annette exudes confidence and authority. Her piercing gaze and determined expression convey her deep understanding of engineering principles and her passion for sharing her knowledge with her peers. The applause and admiration of the Society's members can be seen in the faces of the men in the audience, reflecting the profound impact of her speech. Annette Ashberry's achievement was a significant milestone in the history of engineering and women's rights. Her address to the Incorporated Society of Engineers paved the way for future generations of women engineers and challenged the prevailing beliefs about women's capabilities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. This photograph is a powerful reminder of Annette Ashberry's legacy and the progress that has been made in promoting gender equality and diversity in engineering. It serves as an inspiration for current and future engineers, especially women, to continue pushing boundaries and defying stereotypes in their pursuit of knowledge and innovation.
