S7 Ep 5 - Stephanie Kwolek Chickstory

This week, Annie tells Phoebe all about Stephanie Kwolek who created the first of a family of synthetic fibres of exceptional strength and stiffness. The best known of these fibres is Kevlar which led to the invention of the world's first bullet proof vest.
P.S. If you have a few spare minutes, we'd love it if you could rate and review our little podcast- it helps other people like you find us and discover these incredible stories about often overlooked women in history.
