About this listen
In this episode of Tech Brat, Alecia interviews Emmy Award-winning documentary director and producer, Alexandra Dean. They explore the extraordinary life of Hedy Lamarr—Hollywood icon and brilliant inventor—whose groundbreaking concept of "frequency hopping" paved the way for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
Alexandra shares her journey in uncovering Lamarr’s hidden genius and discusses the broader struggles women face in tech, both past and present. The conversation delves into the ongoing gender disparities in tech funding and the urgent need for empathy, equal representation, and systemic change in today’s political and technological landscape.
