Susan Kelly and Megan Scott

Susan Kelly and Megan Scott, both Mathematics & Statistics, co-authored the article "Gloria Ford Gilmer" in the Oxford African American Studies Center that was accepted for publication by Oxford University Press. This biography tells the story of the first African American woman to have her mathematics papers archived at the Library of Congress (LOC), and this research included work at the LOC with this collection. Gilmer had a Wisconsin connection that included some advanced mathematics studies at UW–Madison and a Ph.D. in Education from Marquette University. She was also the first African American instructor of mathematics in Milwaukee’s public schools, at the Milwaukee Area Technical College, and at UW–Milwaukee. Modest payments are made for authoring these biographies. These funds together with the funds from two other biographies by Kelly were instead donated, and the Milwaukee Public Schools will receive $600 in free books published by Oxford University Press.
