Mary Mahoney

Mary Mahoney was the first African-American graduate nurse in the United States. As such, she was a true pioneer and a heroine of uncommon dedication and determination. Weighing scarcely 90 pounds, she was a bundle of energy who worked 16 hours a day, seven days a week. The American Nurses Association each year gives the Mary Mahoney Award for outstanding contributions to intergroup relations.
