Angela Tabiri, a young mathematician from Ghana, in July captured global attention by winning the title, World’s Most Interesting Mathematician. Here is her story! This accolade was bestowed upon her by The Big Internet Math-Off, a competition held in the US last July. Here is a link to the finals in the competition in which Angela’s winning entry is included.

And I close with a few lines of relevant mathy verse by William Wordsworth:
On poetry and geometric truth
and their high privilege of lasting life,
From all internal injury exempt,
I mused; upon these chiefly: and at length,
My senses yielding to the sultry air,
Sleep seized me, and I passed into a dream.
From all internal injury exempt,
I mused; upon these chiefly: and at length,
My senses yielding to the sultry air,
Sleep seized me, and I passed into a dream.
William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
The Prelude, Book 5
