Abstract
Although she is most famous for her work on enzyme kinetics, Dr. Maud Menten achieved the impossible in multiple areas of her life. She pursued and earned a scientific education in a time when no one wanted women to find passion in anything other than the home. Her discoveries have greatly impacted the scientific community and will continue to do so as long as there are those who are compelled to understand the natural world as she did. In addition to her accomplishments as a scientist, Menten also excelled in the humanities. Her life story provides us with many lessons and inspirations.
