Shannon Denise Bohle is a professional librarian, computer scientist, and writer who won a 2013 artificial intelligence competition sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense. Her background includes library and archive experience, primarily in scientific and medically driven research libraries, including Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory,[1] NASA,[2] and the University of Cambridge.[3][4][5] Bohle was a winner of a 2013 artificial intelligence competition advertised by The White House[6] that was sponsored by the Department of Defense.[6][7][8] Her research has been presented before various military and government audiences including those at National Defense University[9] and the United States Congress. A video she filmed in the 3D virtual library she founded and directed, the Neil A. Armstrong Library and Archives, was shown by the Nobel Prize Foundation at the Nobel Museum in Sweden.[10] Since 2011, she has served on the Editorial Board of the peer-reviewed academic journal Library & Archival Security which is published by Routledge.[11] Early life and educationShannon Bohle was born in Winter Park, Florida, the eldest daughter of model and philanthropist Sandra L. Head (born 1948) and business owner Richard L. Bohle (born 1947), who was of German-Austrian descent. She is the granddaughter (by second marriage) of Detroit inventor and industrialist Oscar Guensche (1907-1985)[12][13][14] and Clara M. Guensche (born 1917) of Grosse Pointe Michigan. Her maternal grandfather, Dudley L. Head, Jr. (1924-1983), was a Sergeant in the United States Marine Corps and a survivor of Iwo Jima. He worked as an engineering contractor with NASA doing rocket testing and development during the early U.S. space program while employed with Chrysler Corporation in Detroit, Michigan and traveled to perform oversight duties at the Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. In 1961, Dudley was transferred to NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans, Louisiana, and later to the Chrysler shell plant in St. Louis, Missouri, and finally in 1977 to the Lima Army Tank Plant in Lima, Ohio where a memorial monument was erected with a tribute in his honor.[15] He was married to Ida M. Furton (born 1925) of Detroit, Michigan and Lima, Ohio whose brother, Edward B. Furton (1922-2006),[16] was an inventor [17] who contributed to in-air refueling of jet planes while stationed as a US Tech Sergeant in the United States Air Force at Edwards Air Force Base in California. She is a graduate of Shawnee High School (Lima, Ohio). Bohle obtained a Master of Library and Information Science degree from Kent State University.[18] As a scholar whose research was funded by the Cambridge Overseas Trusts, she conducted additional graduate work on the preservation of historic and archival materials in the department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Cambridge.[19] Professional and honorary affiliationsBohle is a member of the Science, Technology, and Healthcare Roundtable of the Society of American Archivists, the Medical Library Association, The Society of Ohio Archivists, and the Archivists Roundtable of Metropolitan New York. In the sciences, Bohle was elected Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society in the UK [20] and is a lifetime member of the Cambridge University Astronomical Society related to the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge. She has held professional memberships in the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), The British Society for the History of Science, The National Space Society which was founded by Wernher von Braun, The Planetary Society, The Mars Society founded by Robert Zubrin, and is a Registered Consultant for the Science & Entertainment Exchange run by the National Academy of Sciences. As the owner of her own company, Bohle conducted R&D library technology research and has done award-winning computer science work in artificial intelligence[21] and digital libraries.[22] Attribution
