Anna Mani remained dedicated to the sciences until her retirement in 1976. In recognition of her work, she was awarded the Indian government’s K. R. Ramanathan Medal in 1987. Anna Mani passed away on August 16, 2001.
To celebrate her many contributions to science and particularly the study of weather in India, Google is honoring Anna Mani’s 104th birthday with a homepage Doodle. The artwork for the doodle consists of five circular vignettes of Mani’s life and studies, along with the scientist herself dressed in green, all cleverly arranged to look like the usual Google logo
