Mahatma Gandhi and Ada Lovelace
Ada Lovelace, a 19th century mathematician, is considered the world's first programmer. She wrote an algorithm for Charles Babbage's then-theoretical computing machine.
The second icon shows her with Babbage. It is from a fun steampunk web comic in which Lovelace and Babbage fight crime and invent weird machines. :D

This was a hard one, because most of my favourite people are small and relatively obscure, barely recalled and rarely portrayed in art, literature or film - or alternately wonderful people, but not exciting enough to be portrayed. But here are two people I wish I’d known... the Reverend Sydney Smith and Hildegard of Bingen.

This challenge is all about important figures from history! I would think that "historical" means "dead", but if you want to icon someone who is still alive, I won't keep you from it. *g* You may use real photographs and sources, but fictional representations of these real people are also allowed. E.g. Shakespeare from Shakespeare in Love.
