About
Mazola Mckerson (January 10, 1921 – October 18, 2014) was the first of many things during her lifetime. In 1977 she was elected to the Ardmore City County Commission, making her not only the first African-American, but also the first female to serve on the City Council. Only two years later, Mckerson became the first African-American female mayor of Ardmore, Oklahoma, as well as the first female in the United States to serve as mayor of a city of more than 30,000 people. Mckerson was also the first chairperson of the Governor's Commission on the Status of Women. Aside from her public influence, Mckerson owned and operated The Gourmet Restaurant in Ardmore from 1962 to 1997, the product of her home based catering company that she started in 1946.
