Angella Dorothea Ferguson (born February 15, 1925) is an African American pediatrician known for her groundbreaking research on sickle cell disease. ==Early life and education== Angella Dorothea Ferguson was born in Washington, D.C. to George Alonzo Ferguson and his wife Mary Burton Ferguson. She was one of eight children. Though her father was a high school teacher, had his own architectural firm, and was a U.S. Army reservist, the family struggled financially, especially during the Great Depression.〔〔 Angella became interested in chemistry and mathematics while attending Cardoza High School, which she graduated in 1941. She went on to earn a BS in chemistry from Howard University in 1945, and an MD from Howard University College of Medicine in 1949.〔 At the time there were very few African-American women who were accepted into medical schools. She conducted her internship and residency at Washington Freedman's Hospital and joined the faculty at Howard University in 1953 as an instructor in pediatrics,〔 a position she held until 1959, when she became assistant professor of pediatrics at Freedman's Hospital.〔 She became a full professor at the latter hospital from 1963 to 1990.〔 From 1953 to 1970 she was also an associate pediatrician at Freedman's Hospital.〔 Concurrently, Ferguson was on the staff of the District of Columbia General Hospital; her tenure there extended from 1963 to 1990.〔 Additionally, she had her own private pediatrics practice in Washington, D.C.
