Coleman, Inabelle Graves
Biographical notes:
Coleman worked as a school administrator and journalist before gaining employment with the Intermediate Training Union of the First Baptist Church. During these experiences, she continued writing for the Daily Greensboro News, and Baptist publications, as well as authoring her own books. Her background in writing led to an editorship of the Foreign Mission Magazine which took her to Richmond, Virginia .
Later, while a professor in Shanghai, Coleman also became engaged in an active program of evangelism and social work. A request to the Foreign Mission Board of the denomination allowed her to remain in Shanghai during part of World War II. Upon repatriation in 1943, she went to Columbia University in New York, where she received her master's degree from the School of Philosophy, and completed additional graduate work. When conditions in China allowed, she returned to complete four more years at the University of Shanghai. In Taiwan, her teaching and evangelistic duties continued. She worked until a furlough in 1957.
