   "Been there, done that!"

   That's how Clotilde Dent Bowen used to describe her life (1923-2011).

   This pic is when she was the first African-American woman to graduate medicine from Ohio State University in 1947.

   I've just made her a Wikipedia page:

   And she features in my post on African-American pioneers in mental health. But more on her remarkable life before we meet some others...
