Anthony Bowen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rev. Anthony Bowen (1809 -- 1871), was a civic leader among the African-American community in Washington, D.C., and the first African-American employee of the United States Patent Office. Both the Anthony Bowen YMCA and Anthony Bowen Elementary School in Washington, D.C., are named in his honor. |
