Dorothy Irene Height (March 24, 1912 – April 20, 2010) an American administrator and educator, was a civil rights and women's rights activist specifically focused on the issues of African-American women, including unemployment, illiteracy, and voter awareness.〔("Dorothy Height." 2013. The Biography Channel website.

==Early life==

Dorothy Height was born in Richmond, Virginia. During childhood, she moved with her family to Idaho, Pennsylvania, a steel town in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, where she graduated from Rankin High School in 1929. Height received a scholarship from the Elks, which helped her to attend college.〔Hine, Darlene Clark., William C. Hine, and Stanley Harrold. "Chapter 21." ''The African-American Odyssey'' Combined Edition. 5th edition. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Pearson Education, 2010. 596. Web.〕 She was admitted to Barnard College in 1929, but upon arrival was denied entrance because the school had an unwritten policy of admitting only two black students per year. She enrolled instead at New York University, earning an undergraduate degree in 1932 and a master's degree in educational psychology the following year. She pursued further postgraduate work at Columbia University and the New York School of Social Work (the predecessor of the Columbia University School of Social Work).〔(Dr. Dorothy I.
