Best remembered for the Phillis Wheatley Association that she organized in 1919, Hattie Duckett is one of Greenville's most important leaders. Not only did she direct efforts to give blacks opportunities to further their development, she opened her heart and home to those who needed any kind of help. Mrs. Duckett was honored by the board of trustees of the Greenville County School System by naming the Fine Arts Center building after this fine leader. Duckett was born in 1885 and died in 1956. |
