Martin Robinson Delany had many careers — doctor, editor, author, politician, judge, and army officer.  He used his talents toward abolishing slavery and promoting emigration for African-Americans.  He went to Harvard to become a physician, and during the Civil War recruited soldiers for all-black units in the Union Army.  He attained the rank of major, becoming the first African-American with a regular army commission.  After the war, Delany was active in politics, wrote several books, and became a judge.  In his final years, he returned to the practice of medicine.  Today in the U.S., there are 872,000 physicians and surgeons — 6 percent of them African-American.  This special edition of Profile America is a public service of the U.S. Census Bureau.
