Marie Curia was born Maria Sklodowski in Warsaw, Poland in 1867. She was the youngest of five children. Her parents worked as teachers and they brought her up to love learning. Her mother died in 1877. Manya, as they called her and her sisters had to get jobs. Manya became a tutor for a family. She enjoyed her time there and could send money to her father and her sister, Bronya, who was studying medicine in Paris. When her sister got married, she invited Mariya to live with them and study at the Sorbonne. It was then that she changed her name to Marie. Marie studied Physics and Maths and got her Master's degree in both subjects. When she graduated from university, she started research into magnetism. It was at that time she met Pierre Curie, a young scientist. They fell in love immediately and got married. Marie moved to his house and they both started examining uranium and other elements to decide whether they were radioactive. It took them four years to isolate the radioactive source which she named radium. For this, they won a Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903. In 1906, her husband died in an accident and Marie got the position they had offered him at the Sorbonne. Marie died in July, 1934 in Paris. She died of radiation poisoning. She worked hard and proved that if a person keeps to their goals, they will succeed. For her, success came with the two Nobel Prizes she received and the fact that she was the first woman to ever get one. We all owe her our respect and admiration.
