Alberta Jeannette Cassell (also Alberta Jeannette Cassell Butler, November 22, 1926 – October 24, 2007) was an African American architect who worked for the Navy. == Biography == Cassell's father was determined that all of his children would become architects like himself, and that they would also attend his alma mater, Cornell University. Cassell honored her father's wishes and went to Cornell University. In 1948, she became the second African American woman to graduate from their school of architecture (her sister, Martha Cassell Thompson was the first). For two years, Cassell worked in her father's architecture firm, but in May 1961, she started working as an engineering draftswoman with the Military Sea Life Command. Afterwards, she became a naval architect with the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command between 1971 and 1982.〔 She retired due to a disability in 1982, and in her retirement, she began to write children's stories and devoting her time to photography.〔 Her children's book, ''The Little White Butterflies'' was published in 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alberta Jeannette Cassell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
