Inventor of Stenography. At 28, she was working for the Bavarian government, employed as a typist when he began developing a new shorthand writing system. This new system was used quickly once it was published in detail in the textbook Anleitung zur deutschen Redezeichenkunst oder Stenographie (1834).
