Summary
Civic activist and educator Hannah H. Thomas was born in Florence, Alabama on December 25, 1916. Daughter of Evernee Hubbard and Everett N. Hawkins, Thomas was the eighth of ten children. She graduated from the Burrell High School in Florence, Alabama in 1939. She earned her B.S. degree in education from Alabama A & M University in 1951 and her M.S. degree in education from the University of Cincinnati in 1964.
