She was one of the first black Americans to be recognized as a great artist. She was born 1845 and she died in 1900.
She was recognized as a very good artist. She was also a very good sculpture. She was also a fighter for freedom. She was also involved with the Underground Railroad. She was one of the first black people that fought in the Civil War. I think that she was a very cool person!
