$53.45
Sarah E. Goode was a pioneering African-American entrepreneur and inventor. She was one of the first African-American women to receive a United States patent, which she was granted in 1885 for her invention of the cabinet bed1. Here are some key points about her life and achievements:
Early Life: Born in 1855 in Toledo, Ohio, Sarah E. Goode was originally named Sarah Elisabeth Jacobs. Her parents were Oliver and Harriet Jacobs, with her father working as a carpenter and her mother as an organizer for the Ohio Anti-Slavery Society.
Move to Chicago: Before 1870, Goode’s family moved to Chicago, Illinois, where she married Archibald Goode and had children. Together, they opened a furniture store1.
Invention: Goode’s invention, the folding cabinet bed, was designed to help people living in small apartments make efficient use of their space. It folded into a roll-top desk with compartments for writing supplies and stationery, serving as a precursor to the modern Murphy Bed.
Sarah E. Goode’s innovative spirit and entrepreneurial drive made a lasting impact, providing practical solutions for urban living and paving the way for future inventors.
