A wonderful film!
The talented James Cagney dances to “Give My Regards to Broadway” in the Best Picture nominee “Yankee Doodle Dandy” (1942). The movie explores the life of George M. Cohan.

I am devastated to hear this news. Steve was an extraordinary woman and a true inspiration to so many of us. I could not have written any of my three books on autism without her generous support. I will
miss her energy and humour enormously.

We are so sad to share that Dame Stephanie “Steve” Shirley CH has passed away aged 91. Child refugee turned tech pioneer, philanthropist & autism advocate, she founded an all woman software company & changed countless lives. Her light will never fade.
