Auto-biography

[edit]

I have ordered a copy. Expected Christmas Eve. Rich Farmbrough, 10:37, 17 November 2010 (UTC).[reply]

And a good read it is, although it would be a better shorter book. Rich Farmbrough, 22:56, 9 October 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Proposed sections,

  1. Nursing and nursing homes
  2. Ethiopians
  3. Travel
  4. Recognition

All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 16:23, 27 August 2015 (UTC).[reply]

Was she the first?

[edit]

How acurate is the second sentence of the article: that Janet Bragg was the "first African-American woman to hold a commercial pilot license"? Is there more confirmation of this?

I just read that Bragg was "The second African American woman to earn a full commercial pilot's license" and that "Willa B. Brown became the first African American woman to hold a commercial pilot's license in the United States in 1937."

Are there any other reliable sources out there about this statement? - Whisperjanes (talk) 06:56, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
