Minnie L. Fisher

Minnie Lucinda Fisher (1896-1990) was a civic worker and community activist.

As city librarian, she put a focus on acquiring Black books.

In a New York Times article, she said, "We have put in quite a number of black books in the last year or two.

Our people are reading more black books now and the schools had to put in a whole department.

She was a life-long member of the International Order of Twelve Knights and Daughters of Tabor.
