 | | Also known as St Jude, she was part of what she described as a "lefto-revolutionist programming commune" in Berkeley, California, that built the first public online computer system, the legendary Community Memory project, in 1973. |
 | | She became part of the beat/hipster scene in Cleveland, Ohio, in the early 1960s and was active in the civil rights movement, helping to organise the famous 1965 voting rights march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama, and being jailed for civil disobedience in Jackson, Mississippi. |
 | | Milhon was equally renowned for her well-timed cynicism and often humorous writing, both of which helped establish her as a feminist spokesperson, raising awareness among the growing ranks of women entering the technology sector. |
