“Any girl can be glamorous. All you have to do is stand still and look stupid.” — Hedy Lamarr
Star of film and co-inventor of spread spectrum wireless technology, Hedy lived a relatively long and interesting life. She has even recently been fictionalized by Brad Linaweaver and J., Kent Hastings as an anarchist heroine in their alternate history novel of the Spanish Civil War.

She could enjoy a resurgence of interest on this fact alone: her full first name is Hedwig.

That name does seem to be getting a resurgence of interest lately, from both Harry Potter and this film (I haven’t seen it).
