Raymond Pace Alexander (1897-1974) and Sadie Tanner Mossell Alexander (1898-1989) were pioneers among African Americans in
the legal profession and leaders in public affairs, politics, and government throughout the middle half of the twentieth century.
Raymond Pace Alexander was a graduate of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1920 and from Harvard Law
School in 1923. Sadie Tanner Mossell Alexander earned all three of her degrees (A.B. 1918, M.A. 1919, and Ph.D. 1921) from
the University of Pennsylvania. The Alexander Papers constitute a highly significant resource for the social and political
history of the city of Philadelphia and, in particular, for the history of the city's black professional and political elite,
black civic organizations, and institutions concerned with race relations and civil rights.
