Mathematician Karen Keskulla Uhlenbeck was born #OTD in 1942.
She is known for her work on PDEs, calculus of variations, topology, and gauge theory, and was the second woman (after Emmy Noether!) to give the plenary lecture to the International Congress of Mathematicians.

1. A black and white photo of mathematician Karen Uhlenbeck. She is in her 20s or 30s in this photo, wearing a short skirt with a checker pattern, a dark blouse or shirt, a cardigan (or perhaps a light sweatshirt), and sandals. Her hair is dark and a bit longer than shoulder-length. The photo was taken outside and she is standing in the grass. There is a building and sidewalk behind her.
