Jackie Martin (1903–1969) was a photojournalist and newspaper editor who achieved firsts and near-firsts as a woman in the American workforce. She was the first woman to become art director and picture editor of a metropolitan newspaper and the first to be accepted to membership in the prestigious White House Press Corps. She was also the first woman to be hired as sports editor at a major metropolitan daily paper and first, or one of the first, to manage and coach a professional basketball team. She achieved recognition as the first official photographer and public relations officer for the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps and the first to wear a WAAC uniform. She received awards for her photography, for her work as a war correspondent, and for her internationally-recognized lifetime achievements in journalism.
