Nellie Arnold Plummer (September 7, 1860 to 1933) was a former slave who became the first female student to attend the Normal Department of Wayland Seminary in Washington, D.C.
She subsequently worked as a teacher for over forty-five years and published Out of the Depths, or the Triumph of the Cross, a notable biography of her family in 1927.
Literary scholar Joanne M.
