The Hedy Lamarr Story: WI-FI WAS HER IDEA: The Hollywood Actress Who Revolutionized Modern Technology

She was called "the most beautiful woman in the world"... but she gave the world something far more powerful.

Discover the astonishing true story of Hedy Lamarr-a glamorous Hollywood actress who was also a brilliant inventor. While dazzling audiences on screen, she was secretly working on a technology that would change the world: the foundation for Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth.

In The Hedy Lamarr Story: Wi-Fi Was Her Idea, author Wisdom Wade takes you on an unforgettable journey through Hedy's extraordinary life-from her early days in Vienna to the bright lights of Hollywood, and finally to the hidden world of wartime invention.

Inside this powerful biography, you'll uncover:

The dramatic rise of a star who escaped Nazi-occupied Europe

The invention that revolutionized modern communication-and how it was ignored for decades

The private battles she faced behind her public success

How her legacy now inspires a new generation of women in STEM

This is more than a biography-it's a celebration of brilliance, resilience, and the power of daring to defy expectations. Perfect for readers who love untold histories, women pioneers, science, technology, and inspiring true stories.

If you think you know Hedy Lamarr-think again.
