Dorothy Washington

“Dot”

Dorothy Washington spent forty-two years as a elementary school teacher in Memphis, where she taught second grade with a patience and creativity that became legendary among parents and colleagues. She believed every child could learn to love reading if you just found the right book, and she spent countless weekends at library sales and thrift stores building a classroom library that eventually numbered over two thousand volumes.
