Linda Brown, whose father was the plaintiff in the landmark 1954 case Brown v. Board of Education (Topeka, KS), was 76 years old when she died on March 25, 2018. She was born February 20, 1942. She was 8 years old in September 1950 - the original case was filed in 1951, part of a nationwide racial desegregation effort for public schools.

* her birth year has also been given as 1943, which seems to conflict with her enrolling for 3rd grade in 1950 (not 8 on January 1, 1951).
