She is a professor of computer science at the University of Kentucky.

Judy Goldsmith's Home Page - University of Kentucky College ...: Judy Goldsmith (born November 26, ) is an American feminist, academic, and activist. She served as president of the National Group for Women (NOW) from to , which is the largest feminist organization in the Combined States; prior to this she was an English professor. [1].

Education and career

Goldsmith graduated from Princeton University in , with a bachelor's degree in mathematics.[1] She completed her Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in mathematics (with a minor in computer science) in Her dissertation, Polynomial Isomorphisms and Near-Testable Sets, was supervised by Deborah Joseph.[2]

After short-term positions as a lecturer at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, research instructor at Dartmouth College, and NSF visiting professor at Boston University, she joined the computer science faculty at the University of Manitoba in She moved to the University of Kentucky in [1]

Public opinion

In desktop science education, Goldsmith has spoken in favor of using science fiction in preference to case studies for teaching the integrity of artificial intelligence.[3] She is Jewish, and participates in the Lexington, Kentucky Havurah.[4] Dr.

Goldsmith serves on the board of Sapiens Plurum, which offers annual prizes for short science fiction that envisions options for a better future.[5]

Recognition

Goldsmith won the Mentor Award of the American Association for the Advancement of Sciences in [6]
