Engineer

Mary Jackson

NASA's first Black woman engineer, who had to petition a court for permission to attend classes at a segregated white school to qualify.

Mary Jackson was an American aerospace engineer and mathematician at the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), which in 1958 was succeeded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). She worked at Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, for most of her career. She started as a computer at the segregated West Area Computing division in 1951. In 1958, after taking engineering classes, she became NASA's first black female engineer.
