BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE

Dewey Roscoe Jones

Dewey Roscoe Jones was born on September 2, 1899 in Ashville, North Carolina. His mother relocated with him and his sister to Muskogee, Oklahoma while he was pre-school age. Jones attended elementary and high school in Muskogee, Oklahoma. He graduated from the Manual Training High School at the age of 16.

After graduation, Jones enlisted in the 8th Illinois Regiment; he also served in the U.S. Army 369th and 370th infantry regiments during World War I. Following his service, Jones received a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism from the University of Michigan in 1922. Jones received a Master’s of Science in Journalism in 1932 from Columbia University.

In the spring of 1923 Jones joined the staff of the Chicago Defender as a reporter. He soon was promoted to City Editor and later Managing Editor. Hundreds of Chicago Defender readers knew him best as Dewey R., manager of the poetry column “Lights and Shadows.”

Jones married Faith Jefferson of Oak Park, Illinois on September 29, 1928. Faith Jefferson Jones became a well-known social worker in Chicago. She worked as District Supervisor of the Cook County Bureau of Public Welfare, and then the Assistant Director of the Chicago Relief Administration. The couple had one son, Dewey Roscoe Jones, Jr. on July 20, 1936.

Dewey Jones left the Chicago Defender to work as the Associate Acting Advisor on Negro Affairs in the Federal Emergency Administration of Public Works in the U.S. Department of the Interior under Harold L. Ickes in 1935. While in Washington D.C. he also served as an adviser to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in his “Black Cabinet,” a group of men and women who provided the President and his staff with policy advice on African American issues.

He returned to Chicago in 1938 to serve as the Assistant Director of Hull-House, Jane Addams’s sprawling, progressive settlement just southwest of the city’s Loop. On April 18, 1938 Jones was granted a Julius Rosenwald fellowship for study at Hull-House to determine the social and economic needs of the lowest income group in the area, and to recommend a remedial program. Jones was in the middle of writing his report when he died suddenly at Provident Hospital on April 10, 1939 at the age of 39. His death was subsequent to surgery to remove his gall stones, Jones never recovered from the anesthesia.
