Sallie T. Smith (born in Columbus, Mississippi) may have been the first female practicing architect in Birmingham.
Smith graduated from Verona College in Verona (Lee County), Mississippi and was trained in architecture by her father, W. S. Smith. In the 1880s she worked in Birmingham as the "junior member" of the firm of W. S. Smith & Co.
Sallie Smith attended the meeting at the offices of Sutcliffe, Armstrong & Willet during which the Alabama Association of Architects was formed, and she was appointed treasurer of that organization.
