Biography
Local historian and librarian Ruth Thompson spent her life uncovering and preserving the local history of Minneapolis. She was the first student at the University of Minnesota to receive a master's degree for a thesis on Minnesota history. She graduated in 1912. In 1919, Thompson joined the art department staff at Minneapolis Public Library. In 1938, she was named the first secretary of the Hennepin County Historical Society.
In 1940, Thompson was put in charge of the newly formed Minneapolis Historical Collection at the Minneapolis library. After her retirement from the library in 1946, she started to write a weekly column for the Minneapolis Tribune called "Minnesota Memories". The column ran from January 1, 1945 to October 9, 1950. Ruth Thompson died on October 20, 1950.
