Elizebeth Friedman

Elizebeth Smith Friedman (September 24th 1891 - October 31st 1980) was an American Cryptanalyste and écrivaine.

Member of the Riverbank Laboratory as of 1916, Elizebeth Friedman began his career with the analysis from the texts of Shakespeare in order to determine if he were well the author. With the entry in war of the the United States, it was built-in within the Signal Body and also worked for the US Navy. Between 1917 and 1918, it analyzed German codings in France.

It was a pionnière in the history of the Cryptologie while attacking the quantified radio communications, in particular those of the organizations of various traffics following the Volstead Act. These communications were more or less complex and the techniques of coding evolved/moved gradually, a challenge which the cryptanalyse took up successfully since it deciphered a total of 12  000 messages during its career.

She married in 1917 with William F. Friedman, also cryptanalyste. In 1957, the couple published The Shakespearean Ciphers Examined , a book which refutes the thesis implying Francis Bacon in work shakespearienne.
