Collection Description

Biographical Note Kelly Miller (1863-1939), an African American intellectual and professor, was born in South Carolina in 1863, just a few months after the Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves in the South. As a child Miller expressed a penchant for mathematics, and he was sent for special education in a Presbyterian-sponsored school. After secondary school, he received a scholarship to study at Howard University. He graduated from Howard in 1886 and became the first African American student to enroll at John Hopkins University in . There he studied mathematics, physics, and astronomy. Although unable to complete his education due to financial constraints, he taught mathematics in high school and eventually became a professor of mathematics at Howard University. Miller was an educator and administrator, a commentator on race in America, and a widely published journalist. He is recognized as a prolific African American pamphleteer, producing dozens of essays published by him or by other African American publishers. He edited Kelly Miller's Monographic Magazine, and he wrote a half dozen books. Miller served Howard University in multiple capacities from 1890-1934, teaching both mathematics and sociology. He was dean of the College of Arts and Sciences for more than a dozen years, during a period of dramatic expansion of the University. He married Annie Mae Miller (1869-1950) of Baltimore, Maryland in 1894, and they had five children: Kelly Miller, Jr. (a graduate of Howard University medical school), Isaac Newton Miller, Paul Butler Miller, May Miller, and Irene Miller. Kelly Miller died December 29, 1939.
