Naomi Sager, a prominent researcher in Computational Linguistics, was born in Chicago, IL in 1927. In 1953 Sager obtained a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Columbia University and from 1953-1958 worked as an electronics engineer in the Biophysics Department of the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research in New York City. She later worked on the computer processing of natural language as a member of the team that developed the first English language parsing program that ran on Univac 1 at the University of Pennsylvania in 1959. Sager's section of the program was to treat syntactic ambiguity (more than one possible analysis at points in the sentence). She later took up a PhD study under the supervision of Zellig Harris and advised a number of doctoral students, of which a number of them are frontiers in natural language processing. More information about Sager can be found in the NYU website.[1]
