Information trouvée : William Henry Hunt (1869–1951) was an African-American diplomat, one of the few black
people in the United States diplomatic corps (foreign service) during the 19th century.
Born in Tennessee, Hunt moved north where he was educated at Williams College. He
was befriended by Mifflin Wistar Gibbs, who hired him as an aide for his 1897 consular
posting in Madagascar. Hunt was appointed to succeed Gibbs there, and went on to serve
at posts in France, Portugal, Guadeloupe and Liberia, retiring in 1932. He settled
in Arkansas, where he became active in law and politics.
