Maggie Gee

Maggie Gee was an American aviator who served in the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) in World War II. She was one of two Chinese-American women to serve in the organization, the other being Hazel Ying Lee. As a WASP pilot, she helped male pilots train for combat, since female pilots were not allowed to serve in combat at that time. She also ferried military aircraft. After serving as a WASP, she held a career as a research physicist and political activist against racial discrimination.
