Ann Newman Jackson


Among the things I remember about 125 P Street NW are visitors, especially on sundays and holidays.

This picture was taken during a visit from Ann Newman Jackson, I am on the right.
Our grandfather was William Robert Newman, Sr.

Ann and I still keep in touch by phone, conversations with her are always delightful.













Ann Newman married Jesse Jackson. The picture above was taken during her pregnancy, their daughter is Judith Ann.

Ann's husband (pictured below) wrote books for young adults. His books include Call Me Charley (1945), Tessie (1968), and Make a Joyful Noise unto the Lord: The Life of Mahalia Jackson Queen of Gospel Singers (1974).
