Career
Lockhart graduated in 1965 from the Bronx High School of Science.[1] She received her BS in mathematics from New York University,[2] and went on to receive her Ph.D. from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in the area of continuum mechanics.[3]
Lockhart went on to work at SUNY Geneseo before moving to Michigan Technological University in 1976.[2] She began working as a Program Director and then Deputy Division Director at the National Science Foundation.
Awards and honors
In 2012, Lockhart became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[4] Also that year, she became a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.[5]

gollark: I have not.

gollark: There are also a lot of things it can't do, like many other reasoning tasks, anything not expressible as text, and a lot of things requiring world modeling. But I don't know if that means it isn't "thinking".
gollark: I don't know if it can "think" because that's quite poorly defined. I do know that it can do some amount of logical and common-sense reasoning and has very good language abilities.
