==Early life and career==
The daughter of a medical doctor and a concert pianist,〔Amy Ellis Nutt, "(Will the universe disappear, or does a mysterious force have other plans for it? )" The Star-Ledger, Newark, NJ (December 5, 2002)〕 Freedman's early interest in science was kindled by a formative high-school physics class. This led her to the University of Toronto, where she was first a biophysics student, then an astronomy major, receiving her B.Sc. in 1979.〔National Academy of Sciences, "(InterViews: Wendy L. Freedman )"〕 She remained at Toronto for her graduate work, receiving a Ph.D. in astronomy and astrophysics in 1984.〔Carnegie Institution, "(The Carnegie Observatories: Director )"〕 Joining the Carnegie Observatories in Pasadena, California, as a post-doctoral fellow in 1984, she became a faculty member of the scientific staff three years later as the first woman to join Carnegie's permanent staff. In 2003 she was named to the Crawford H. Greenewalt Chair and Director of Carnegie Observatories.〔Elizabeth H. Oakes, Encyclopedia of World Scientists, "(Wendy Freedman )"〕 Freedman's early work was principally on the Cepheid distance scale.
