{"value"=>"<p>Arnold P. Johnson (1910-1994), a native of Cuba, was a businessman, labor organizer, community activist, a World War II veteran, and resident of Harlem. Johnson was known as \"Mr. Harlem\" because of his \"tireless efforts to encourage economic self-empowerment and entrepreneurship in the Harlem community\". He presided over, or held memberships, in several community organizations and corporations. In addition to his involvement in organizations represented in the papers, Johnson founded the Harlem Small Business Chamber of Commerce; co-founded the State, County, and Municipal Workers of America Trade Union; and co-owned Etienne's Fashions boutique with his wife, Etienne Johnson. He was also the first Black trustee of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.</p>"}
