Elsie Shutt (née Goedeke, born 1928) is a pioneering American programmer and technological entrepreneur. Born in New York City, she was raised in Baltimore, Maryland. Although Shutt attributes her learning to her mother’s academic path and Baltimore’s education-forward school system, the logic-based aspects of math and science were what fascinated her. She went on to study math at Goucher College — at the time, all-women’s college offering a premier education — in hopes of teaching math at the college level.
