Who+Am+I+-+9

When I was a child I was poor but years later I became president of a bank.

I later met Armisted Walker. We fell in love, then we got married and we had two boys and thier names are Melvin and Russell.

I started a newspaper called the St. Luck Herald.

My bank helped many African Americans, start buissnessess, and buy homes.

Before I, and this is no tale Bank presents in America,Had always been male.

To heip American children have a better life. I began a school fund, And less to thier strife.

I started a home, for American girls, to help them solve problems, And succeed in thier world.

People loved me, Many knew my name, With statues I was honored, I had earned my fame.
