"Miss Mary Ellen Lewis (left), former veteran Ann Arbor teacher, and Earl Riskey, former intramurals director at the university, were two of the many Ann Arborites who turned out last night to honor Nicholas Schreiber (center) at a farewell dinner. Schreiber, principal of Ann Arbor High School for 22 years before his retirement last June, leaves the city next month for Arizona, where he and his wife plan to make their home. Miss Lewis was a teacher and counselor in the Ann Arbor Public School for 38 years before her retirement in 1961. She worked with Schreiber at AAHS for many years."

AACHM Oral History: Rosemarion Blake

Please take a moment to take our Living Oral History Survey and let us know what you learned.

Rosemarion Alexander Blake was born in Kansas City, Missouri in 1923 to Jewel Alexander Price and Jacob Price. She was brought to Ann Arbor between two to four years of age by her great Aunt Hattie and Uncle Robert Alexander. Rosemarion attended Jones School Kindergarten through 9th grade and graduated from Ann Arbor High School in 1941. She held a number of jobs after graduating and in 1945 became the first African-American woman to work in city Hall in a non-custodial position. A number of years later, she worked in Publication Sales at the Institute for Social Research from 1970 until her retirement in 1987.
