Summary
| Description |
English: Madge E. Copeland (March 31, 1895 - Nov. 15, 1988). Copeland opened the first beauty parlor for African-American women in Phoenix and went on to become the first African-American appointed as Deputy Maricopa County Recorder in 1947, which at the time was the highest political office any African American had held in Arizona. She served as Deputy County Recorder until she retired in 1961. She was extremely active in the fight for segregation in Arizona and an important leader in the Democratic Party. (Note: her husband Clarence N. Copeland (1882-1929) is also buried there)< |
