Lillian Schwartz, pioneer in computer-generated art, dies at 97

Lillian Schwartz, who was one of the first artists to use the computer to make films and who helped bring together the artistic, scientific and technology communities in the 1970s by providing a glimpse of the possibilities at the intersections of those fields, died Saturday at her home in Manhattan. She was 97.

Her son Laurens Schwartz confirmed the death.
