New Haven’s celebrated history often overshadows its fascinating past. It was home to America’s first woman dentist, an architect who designed the tallest twin towers in the world and a medical student who used toy parts to create an artificial heart pump. The city is noted as home to a world class university, the first African American to receive a PhD degree and the man who gave most common dinosaurs their names. New Haven’s rich and fascinating cultural legacies make it a treasured New England city.
