Description
Thurgood Marshall was the first African-American to be an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. He was nominated by President Lyndon Johnson and served from 1967 to 1991. In 1965, Marshall became the first African-American to be Solicitor General of the United States, again appointed by President Johnson. As an attorney, he frequently argued before the Supreme Court, and came to national prominence in 1954 when he won the verdict in Brown v. Board of Education, a Supreme Court decision that desegregated public schools in America. Marshall was born in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1908, and died in 1993. He is buried in Arlington National Cemetery near Washington, D.C., a few miles from the Supreme Court where he served with great distinction as this country's first African-American Associate Justice.
