Ruby Bridges was born on September 8, 1954, in Tylertown, Mississippi, USA. She gained national attention in 1960 when, at the age of six, she became the first African American child to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South, specifically William Frantz Elementary in New Orleans, Louisiana. Her courageous act became a significant moment in the American Civil Rights Movement.
