Marie shared the Physics Nobel in 1903 with Henri Becquerel and her
Husband Pierre. She won the Chemistry Nobel in 1911 [unshared]. Her
daughter, Irene Joliot-Curie, shared the Chemistry prize in 1935.
Marie's relationship with Pierre was as beautiful as any relationship
between a man and a woman that I've ever heard of - full of 'light',
'quiet' mutual-caring, and invigorating scientific-interest.
