High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Marie Paris Pi mi de Recilas (January 30, 1911 August 1, 1999) was a Turkish-Mexican astronomer of Armenian descent. Pi mi was born Mari Sukiasyan in 1911, in Ortaköy, Istanbul. In 1937, she became the first woman to get a Ph.D. from the Science Faculty of Istanbul University. Her advisor was Erwin Finlay Freundlich. Later, she went to Harvard University where she met her future husband Félix Recillas, a Mexican mathematician. They settled in Mexico, and she became the first professional astronomer in Mexico. According to Dorrit Hoffleit, "she is the one person most influential in establishing Mexico's importance in astronomical education and research". Currently Mexico is the country with the highest proportion of female astronomers. For more than 50 years she worked at UNAM which awarded her a number of prizes including the "Science Teaching Prize". Pi mi studied among others the kinematics of galaxies, H II nebulae, the structure of open star clusters and planetary nebulae. She compiled the catalogue Pismis of 22 open clusters and 2 globular clusters in the southern hemisphere.
