EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant city of Manchester in the 1960s. Standing proudly amidst the bustling Quay Street is Noreen Owen, a young and determined member of staff at the National Computing Centre. It was on that sunny day of May 30th, 1967 when this snapshot captured her essence as a teenage girl embracing the world of technology and breaking barriers in a male-dominated field. With an air of confidence and poise beyond her years, Noreen represents not only a generation's fascination with computers but also symbolizes the progressive spirit that defined Manchester during its boom era. As she stands outside her office building, one can't help but marvel at how far technology has come since those early days. This image serves as a reminder of how important it is to acknowledge trailblazers like Noreen who paved the way for women in tech today. Her presence in this photograph speaks volumes about determination, ambition, and resilience - qualities that continue to inspire generations after her. Stringer's lens captures not just an ordinary moment frozen in time but rather an extraordinary testament to human progress and empowerment. This print encapsulates both nostalgia for simpler times and admiration for those who dared to dream big amidst rapidly advancing technological landscapes.
