Ella Bully-Cummings  

Definición

  • Ella May Bully was working in the ticket booth of a Detroit theater in the mid-1970s when she saw an unusual sight: a woman police officer patrolling Detroit's streets. Three years later, the 19-year-old high school graduate decided to try walking the same beat; 23 years later she became only the second African American female named chief of one of the 10 largest police departments in the nation.
