Abstract
Dr. David Blackwell is an African American educational pioneer and eminent scholar in the fields of mathematics and statistics, whose contributions to our society extend beyond these fields. This paper highlights his significant contributions and the personal, educational, and professional experiences that groomed and nurtured him for leadership as a civic scientist. We hope this account of Dr. Blackwell's life will enhance the literature on African American achievers, and motivate students majoring in, or considering careers in mathematics and statistics, particularly those from underrepresented groups.
