You can also check out this related Wikipedia link about Anandi Gopal Joshi and the photo pictured above. The Wikipedia article says
Anandi Gopal Joshi (March 31, 1865 – February 26, 1887) was the first Indian woman to obtain a degree in Western medicine. (Kadambini Ganguly earned a medical degree the same year, 1886, after Anandibai.) She was also the first Hindu woman to do so,[1] and is also believed to be the first Hindu woman to set foot on American soil. [2]
