OVERNIGHT CODE is the inspiring story of Raye Montague, a groundbreaking Black female engineer who created the first computer-designed ship for the U.S. Navy. From inauspicious beginnings in segregated Little Rock, she spent a lifetime educating herself, both inside and outside of the classroom, so that she could become the person and professional she aspired to be. Join Paige Bowers and David Montague as they discuss their book OVERNIGHT CODE: The Life of Raye Montague, the Woman Who Revolutionized Naval Engineering. This event will be moderated by Alison Law, former host of the “Literary Atlanta” podcast and staff member of the Decatur Book Festival.
