I've personally worked with zero female, American developers in 10 years of professional programming (I've primarily worked for smaller companies and startups). I don't think much will change unless programming is pushed as a possible career path for young girls early on. In fact, now that I think about it, I've only worked alongside one female American developer total (academically and professionally) and she changed majors after a few weeks in her first year.
