The first African American Certified Public Accountant (CPA) was John Cromwell Jr. It took Cromwell fifteen years to find a state that would let him sit for the exam. Finally in 1921, New Hampshire passed a law that allowed Cromwell to take and pass the exam. In 1930, he became comptroller of Howard University in Washington D.C. Forty years later, in the early 1960s, John Cromwell Jr. was still the only African American CPA in our nationโs capital.
In 1943, Mary Thelma Washington became the first female African American CPA. Washington opened her own accounting firm and gave aspiring African American accountants the opportunity to gain experience and become CPAs. Her firm grew into one of the largest Black-owned CPA firms in the country. She passed away in 2015 at the age of 99.
