Maya Angelou (Marguerite Annie Johnson)
(April 4, 1928 – May 28, 2014)

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States Mint said Monday it has
begun shipping quarters featuring the image of poet Maya Angelou,
the first coins in its American Women Quarters Program.

Angelou, an American author, poet and Civil Rights activist, rose
to prominence with the publication of "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" in 1969. Angelou, who died in 2014 at the age of 86, was
honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2010 by
President Barack Obama.

In the first flight of its kind, American aviatrix Amelia Earhart
departed Wheeler Field in Honolulu, Hawaii, on a solo flight to
North America. Hawaiian commercial interests offered a $10,000
award to whoever accomplished the flight first. The next day,
after traveling 2,400 miles in 18 hours, she safely landed at
Oakland Airport in Oakland, California.

Introducing… The Beatles is the first Beatles album released in the United States. Originally scheduled for a July 1963 release, the LP
came out on 10 January 1964, on Vee-Jay Records, ten days before Capitol‘s Meet the Beatles!. The latter album, however, entered the
U.S. album chart one week before the former. Consequently, when
Meet The Beatles! peaked at #1 for eleven consecutive weeks, Introducing…The Beatles stalled at #2 where it remained nine consecutive weeks. It was the subject of much legal wrangling,
but ultimately, Vee-Jay was permitted to sell the album until late
1964, by which time it had sold more than 1.3 million copies. On 24
July 2014 the album was certified gold and platinum by the RIAA.
