OSA boasts a distinguished list of past presidents; each has brought individual talents and passions to the job and left a lasting and positive impact on the Society.  Since 1917, four outstanding women have been elected by their peers to serve as OSA’s president.  Please join us for the unique opportunity to hear their perspectives on being a female scientist in a predominately male field, serving as the president of OSA and sharing their views on future trends in optics and photonics.
