A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

DR. B. D. (BENNIE DOUGLAS) MAYBERRY, a native Alabamian, graduated from Tuskegee Institute in 1937. Although George Washington Carver had officially retired by then, he would lecture from time to time as a guest of other professors and Mayberry considered it a pleasure and a privilige to be Carver's student.Mayberry was active in teaching, research, and administration at Tuskegee for more than thirty years, from 1950 until his retirement in 1981. He diligently pursued state and federal funding for the land grant universities (including Tuskegee) that the Morrill Act had established in 1890 to serve African Americans. Among many other noteworthy contributions, Mayberry also led the effort to establish Tuskegee's pre-forestry program and secured the funding that established the Macon County Community Action Program and the Tuskegee Model Cities Project.
