Featuring: Toni Davis (Host & Storyteller).

Summary

In this compelling episode of The Dough of Destiny, we travel back to the 19th century to meet the extraordinary Judy W. Reed, a woman who kneaded more than just dough—she kneaded her way into history. Born in 1826, Judy broke barriers and defied odds to become the first African American woman ever to receive a Unites States patent.

Her invention? A revolutionary Dough Kneader and Roller, patented in September 1884, that changed the way bread was made across America. But who was Judy beyond her invention? We follow her courageous journey to her move from Virginia to Washington, D.C.

Despite the challenges of her time, Judy’s story is one of resilience and quiet brilliance. Yet, like many innovators, her legacy almost faded into obscurity after her passing in 1905.
