Civic leader of New York City and a major figure in local Democratic Party activities.

From the guide to the Wilhelmina F. Adams papers, 1914-[ca. 1970, (The New York Public Library. Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, Manuscripts, Archives and Rare Books Division.)

Wilhelmina F. Adams was a political and civil rights activist for African Americans and women in New York City. She was the first African American woman to be elected a delegate to the Democratic National Convention (1944) and was also the first African American woman to be elected co-leader of the current 17th Assembly District. Adams was active in numerous organizations, including being a life member and president of the National Council of Negro Women from 1952-1954, the National Association of Business and Professional Women and its New York Chapter, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the New York Urban League. She was the founder and president of the Aeolian Ladies of Charity, an organization devoted to assisting the aged at Christmas and other seasons of the year, president of the Utopia Neighborhood Club which was concerned with small children, and was active in the Friends of the Northside Center which was a child guidance center aimed at preventing delinquency and maladjustment. Adams' love of music and the arts was also manifested in her membership in arts organizations. Her year of birth is uncertain; she was born between 1900 and 1910.
