I was assigned a report for my college class on Cisco. On their "about" page tells the story of how Cisco was invented by the Husband and wife wanting to communicate but due to technology, they were unable to.
"The concept of solutions being driven to address specific customer challenges has been with Cisco since its inception. Husband and wife Len Bosack and Sandy Lerner, both working for Stanford University, wanted to email each other from their respective offices located in different buildings but were unable to due to technological shortcomings. A technology had to be invented to deal with disparate local area protocols; and as a result of solving their challenge - the multi-protocol router was born."

Some specifically about Sandy Lerner, some focussing on Chawton House but mentioning her. Some of these have been used in the article, but not in depth, i.e. these sources contain more info worth writing in to the biography.

The article listed a long string, with a CN from November 2017. I searched for them all, and found refs for two. The others I have cut, but put here for clarity, and in case anybody wants to find a reliable source:
