... that Carl Cotton was the first black taxidermist to work at the Field Museum of Natural History after being hired in 1947? Source: "Carl Cotton (1918–1971) was a taxidermist, artist, and exhibition preparator who worked at the Field Museum from 1947 until his death in 1971. He is the Field Museum’s first African American taxidermist, maybe even Chicago’s first professional one." ("Finding Carl Cotton" - Field Museum of Natural History)
