The Only Woman in the Room is a historical fiction novel by Marie Benedict. The book tells the story of Hedy Lamarr, a Hollywood actress and inventor who played a pivotal role in the development of wireless technology.

Lamarr was born in Austria in 1914 and rose to fame in the 1930s as a glamorous Hollywood star. She starred in a number of films, including the controversial drama Ecstasy, which featured a nude scene that caused a sensation.

Despite her success in Hollywood, Lamarr was unhappy with the limited roles available to women and felt typecast as a sex symbol. In 1942, she married Fritz Mandl, an Austrian arms dealer, in an attempt to escape her stardom.

Mandl introduced Lamarr to the world of science and technology, and she became fascinated by the potential of using radio waves to guide torpedoes. She developed a frequency-hopping system that would make it impossible for enemies to jam the signal and patented the technology.

However, her invention was largely ignored during World War II, and it was not until the 1960s that her work was finally recognized. Lamarr was awarded the National Medal of Science in 2014, posthumously, for her groundbreaking work in wireless technology.
