THOMAS N. BLACK, M. D.
    Dr. Thomas N. Black, one of the younger physicians of Hot Springs, whose
ability, however, is bringing him rapidly to the front, was born in Little River
county, Arkansas, June 24, 1891, his father being Thomas N. Black, a native of
Alabama. Dr. Black was largely reared at Ashdown, Arkansas, where he pursued a
public school education, while later he attended a high school in Oklahoma and
also was a student in the University of Oklahoma. He thus laid broad and deep
the foundation upon which to build the superstructure of professional knowledge,
when he had decided to engage in the practice of medicine as a life work. In
1911 he entered Tulane University at New Orleans, Louisiana, as a medical
student and was graduated therefrom with the class of 1918. His first practical
experience came to him through serving as an interne in Charity Hospital of that
city. He afterward opened an office in Hot Springs in connection with Dr.
Tribble, his office being in the Thompson building. He specializes in urology
and surgery and is making rapid advance along those lines, attaining a marked
degree of efficiency in each. In addition to his private practice he is serving
on the staff of the St. Joseph Hospital.

    Dr. Black was united in marriage on the 30th of June, 1920, to Miss Fern
Burhop and they now have one child, Natta Lee. Dr. Black is a member of the
Benevolent Protective Order of Elks and also of the Knights of Pythias, while
along professional lines he is identified with the Garland County Medical
Society, the Arkansas State Medical Society, the Southern Medical Association
and the American Medical Association. His interest in his profession has its
root not only in a desire for success but also in broad humanitarian principles
and he maintains the highest standards in his practice, anxious at all times
that his service shall be of real practical benefit to his fellowmen.
