Well luckily we can verify just how much code she actually committed to the project.
The Event Horizon Telescope Analysis Toolkit is a publicly available repository on Github: https://github.com/sao-eht/eat
according to Katie's profile klbouman, she was responsible for a subset of that toolkit known as hopstools - which is described in the readme as "tools to convert data from the HOPS format": https://github.com/klbouman/hopstools
Leaving sex out of it, is this a classic case of a project manager getting all of the credit for a development team's hard work? Because by the looks of it it certainly looks like she didn't commit very much code unless I'm missing something. I'd say at the very least giving Andrew Chael, Mareki Honma and the rest of the development team just as much credit as she got for such an historic accomplishment would be fair to say the least.

Of the 259 commits to that project, klbouman is responsible for exactly 2. An initial commit - and a merge into the final toolkit: https://github.com/klbouman/hopstools/commits/master
