Abstract
Biography and photograph of Maurice Stroud. About: Maurice Stroud worked at the Valdosta State College Library from 1973-1976, for almost 4 years. She was Maurice Richardson at that time, and she was the first African American woman to do staff-level professional library work. She was employed in the cataloging department, working with individual book records to make our library's books findable. She and her family are very proud of her ground-breaking time here at VSU. Valdosta State was lucky to have such an employee so devoted to education. The family remembers her, her impact, her work at VSU, and her strength as a woman of her time.
