One who impressed me when I heard about her "intelligence" activities in the WWII era was Hedy Lamarr (scroll down to a brief note) who is credited with the invention of a "frequency hopping" scheme, originally intended prevent jamming of control signals for torpedos, and used by the US for communications during the "Cuban crisis" in the early 60s (after the patent expired).

A number of stories have been known about many of the more "celebrated" personalities who participated in OSS, but this is apparently the first release of a complete(?) roster of some 25,000(?) "agents" who were part of the "intelligence" community in that time.

(Recent "newsless" articles are vague and contradictory about exactly what is included in the release.)
