Maryann Keller: A remarkable woman from her earliest days straight through the finish line.
A researcher at heart, she always relied on and created the data to provide exceptional insights with accuracy.
She possessed an insatiable curiosity and was courageous enough to speak up even against the OEMs.
Imagine hearing her in the seventies telling #Ford, #Chrysler and #GM that Japan was coming and getting booed off the stage.
Just imagine this.
She was right. The room wasn't.
This rogue professional female, no matter her accomplishments, getting booed by a room full of men. This alone gives me more inspiration than you can imagine.
The automotive industry is better by far for her having lived lived in it.
My only regret is that I never had a chance to meet this giant. Make sure you connect connect with those who inspire you. And do your best.
Do it in Mary Ann's honor and for our better, shared future.
Godspeed, Ms. Keller.
