Harriette Jay Cooke (December 1, 1829 – July 27, 1914) was an American professor and women's rights pioneer. She was the first known female professor in the United States to have the same salary as an equally-ranked man. Harriette Cooke was promoted to full professorship in 1871. She remained a professor until her resignation from Cornell College in 1890. After resigning from Cornell, Cooke studied and worked as a deaconess. She later became superintendent of a settlement house in Boston, where she also provided medical aid to the poor. Cooke was praised by her fellow professors, and the 1904 Cornell College Record named her as the Mary Lyon of Iowa.
