Hallie Quinn Brown (March 15, 1845/1850 - September 16, 1949) was an African-American educator and activist.[1] She moved with her parents (who were freed slaves) while quite young to a farm near Chatham, Ontario, Canada, in 1864 and then to Ohio in 1870. In 1868, she began a course of study in Wilberforce University, Ohio, from which she graduated in 1873 with the degree of Bachelor of Science.[2]
She started her career by teaching at a country school in South Carolina and at the same time, a class of older people.[3] After this, she went to Mississippi, where she again had charge of a school.[3] She became employed as a teacher at Yazoo City, Mississippi, before securing a position as teacher in Dayton, Ohio. Resigning due to ill health, she then traveled in the interest of Wilberforce University on a lecture tour, and was particularly welcomed at Hampton Normal School (now Hampton University) in Virginia. Though elected as instructor in elocution and literature at Wilberforce University, she declined the offer in order to accept a position at Tuskegee Institute. In 1886, she graduated from Chautauqua, later receiving the degree of Master of Science from her alma mater, Wilberforce University, being the first woman to do so.[4]
The Hallie Q. Brown Community Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota, established in 1929, was established to serve the community. It was named to commemorate the life of Hallie Quinn Brown. The library at Central State University in Wilberforce, Ohio is named the Hallie Q. Brown Memorial Library in her honor.[5]: 305
