Anna Louise James (1886-1977), licensed in Connecticut as a pharmacist in 1911, owned and operated her pharmacy from 1922 until 1967, when she retired. James was the first African American woman and one of the first women to become a pharmacist in the state. She was also among the first women who registered to vote when women's suffrage was passed in 1920. In 1974, the Old Saybrook Veterans of Foreign Wars gave James its Citizen of the Year award. This site is also the birthplace of James' niece, Ann Lane Petry (1908-1997), a Harlem Renaissance writer who became the first black woman writer with book sales topping a million copies for her novel The Street. Ann Petry was inducted into the Connecticut Women’s Hall of Fame in 1994. The James Pharmacy building is on the National Register of Historic Places.
