Bessie Coleman in tailor made officer's uniform posed standing on the running board of a Ford Model T automobile with nose and right wing of her Curtiss JN-4 Jenny to her left, 1922. Bessie Coleman (1892 - 1926) was an African-American civil aviator. She could not gain admission to American flight schools because she was black and a woman. She learned French, traveled to Paris, and in 1921, became the first woman of African-American descent to earn an international aviation license. No photographer credited, 1922.
