Mileva Einstein-Marić
Mileva Einstein-Marić, born on December 19, 1875, in Titel, Serbia, was a pioneering physicist and mathematician who was one of the first women to study at the Polytechnic Institute in Zurich. She is best known as the first wife of Albert Einstein and is often debated in terms of her contributions to his early work, including the theory of relativity. Despite her academic prowess, her career was overshadowed by her husband's growing fame, and their marriage eventually ended in divorce. Mileva received a portion of Einstein's Nobel Prize winnings, which she used to support her family, including their son Eduard, who suffered from schizophrenia. Her legacy has been reevaluated in recent years, with some scholars recognizing her significant role in Einstein's intellectual development.
