I had the pleasure of meeting Adm. Grace Hopper when she gave a talk at the University of Minnesota. She was a force of nature. Adm. Hopper handed out lengths wire that showed the distance that light travels in a nanosecond. Unfortunately, I lost my nanosecond wire in a move. 

Very cool, she definitely belongs on the list. I was curious, you didn't mention how long it was, I had to look it up "speed of light is one foot per nanosecond". I know a nanosecond isn't very long, time-wise and how far a light year is, still I expected it to be longer.

I am having two issues with this series of inspirational women polls. One is the lack of current biopics, not widely seen biopics or no biopic at all for deserving women.15 Women Who Deserve Their Own Biopics  I guess male pioneers get overlooked too or proper credit isn't always given. The second is how to handle those that have big star biopics in-development and an older biopic: Mary Magdalene, Florence Nightingale, Dr. Marie Curie, Harriet Tubman, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Catherine the Great, Mary, Queen of Scots, Elizabeth I. I have phrased the questions generically, putting the focus is on the inspirational woman and featured, in most cases, the big star upcoming biopic, so I wouldn't have to change it. I also listed alternative or upcoming biopics that I am not sure are going to exceed the original in the notes. I am now running into a problem with projects in that are in development hell and may never see the screen, as well as, fast tracked female biopics or biopics I didn't know about coming out this year. I want to feature the biopic people most identify with that person.

How should this be handled and be pro-active in setting the poll up, as well as, updating it when new biopics come out? I think the question is non-specific enough as poll voters are voting for either the woman herself or any one of her biopics, rather than a specific biopic title or the featured title, especially where all are listed in the answer option. So, I don't think an update would invalidate any prior votes. I would like some advice/direction on how best to handle this and keep the polls current?

Which inspirational [blank] female* in their field inspires you the most, or alternatively their biopic?

Typo in #2: Amelia Earhart.

'Well- written great poll and tough choice. I'd say Norma Rae or Katherine Graham, or maybe Mary Jackson and the other 'Hidden Figures' women. I really like this one.
