From Collaboration to Oblivion: The Tragedy of Mileva Marić Einstein

What if Einstein's 1905 "miracle year" wasn't a solo achievement? Letters and biographical evidence reveal that Mileva Marić—Einstein's first wife and fellow physicist—was far more than a supportive spouse. She was his intellectual equal, his study partner, and his collaborator on some of his most famous work.

This talk examines the documented evidence of their partnership, placed in its personal and historical context. Through facts rather than speculation, we'll explore why this talented physicist has been largely erased from history—and what her story reveals about how we remember scientific achievement.
