Inez Prosser became the first African American woman to receive a Ph.D. in psychology in the United States in 1933 from the University of Cincinnati. Mamie Phipps Clarke was also a prominent African American psychologist and researcher, but she did not receive her Ph.D. until 1943 from Columbia University. Mary Whiton Calkins and Christine Ladd-Franklin were pioneering female psychologists in their own right, but they were not African American, nor were they the first to receive a Ph.D. in psychology.
