Harriet Redmond (born circa 1862 – June 27, 1952), also known as Hattie Redmond, was an African-American suffragist who lived and worked in Portland, Oregon.[1] Born in St. Louis, Missouri,[2] she moved to Oregon at a young age where she then became an active member of the suffragist movement.[3]

Redmond is best known for her efforts as secretary and then president of the Colored Women’s Equal Suffrage Association.[1][3] After Oregonian women gained the right to vote in 1912, Redmond remained politically active by working on the campaigns of various Republicans.[4]
