The NTA Baltimore Chapter was founded fifty years ago in 1958 under the 16th National President, Henry L. Livas. Charter members included the chapter’s first president, Edward W. Taylor, Architect; Robert Pentigrew, Electrical Engineer; Cecil Johnson, Educator/Printer; Thomas V. Davis, Architect/Planner; Clarence Barber, Jr., Engineering Technician; and Curley Wilson, Scientist. They were the pioneers who opened doors in the science and technical fields for African Americans in the Baltimore metropolitan area at Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Martin Marietta, the Baltimore City Planning Commission and Aberdeen Proving Ground. The local Chapter meets the third Wednesday of each month except July and August. Meetings are held at 5:30 p.m. in Conference Room 113 of the Engineering Building at Morgan State University.
