From an unlikely beginning as an agency transcriptionist in her
hometown of Washington, DC, Gloria Brown became the first African
American woman to attain the rank of forest supervisor at the US
Forest Service. As a young widow with three children, she
transferred to Missoula, Montana, and embarked on a remarkable
journey, ultimately leading the Siuslaw National Forest in Oregon
and later the Los Padres in California. The story of Brown's
career, from clerical worker to forest supervisor, unfolds against
the backdrop of a changing government agency and a changing
society. As scholars awaken to the racist history of public land
management and the ways that people of color have been excluded
from contemporary notions of nature and wilderness, Brown's story
provides valuable insight into the roles that African Americans
have carved out for themselves in the outdoors generally and in the
field of environmental policy and public lands management
specifically. Drawing on her powerful communication and listening
skills, her sense of humor, and her willingness to believe in the
basic goodness of humanity, Brown conducted civil rights trainings
and shattered glass ceilings, all while raising her children alone.
Written in an engaging and accessible style with historian Donna
Sinclair, Brown's story provides a fascinating case study for
public administration and contributes to a deeper understanding of
the environmental and civil rights movements of the twentieth
century, particularly the role that racial discrimination has
played in national forests, parks, and other wilderness spaces. It
also highlights issues of representation in the federal government,
women's history, the history of the American West, and literature
associated with African American experiences in predominately white
societies.
