Ulysha Reneé Hall (born February 10, 1971)[2] is an American police officer. She served as the chief of police of the Dallas Police Department from 2017 through the end of 2020.
Hall grew up in Detroit. Her father was a police officer with the Detroit Police Department, but was murdered in 1971 when she was six months old. She attended Grambling State University and University of Detroit Mercy, and became an officer with the Detroit Police Department herself. She was promoted to deputy chief of the Detroit police in 2014. The Detroit City Council noted in 2017 that "Deputy Chief Ulysha Renee Hall has served the Detroit Police Department and the citizens of Detroit with loyalty, integrity and professionalism. She is widely respected throughout the law enforcement community as a disciplined leader and consummate professional with the proven ability to deliver results."[3] In 2017, she moved to Dallas to become chief of the Dallas Police Department. She became the first woman (and first black woman) to serve as police chief in Dallas.[4][5] On September 8, 2020, Hall sent her letter of resignation to the Dallas city manager, which was accepted.[6][7] However, Hall's resignation did not go into effect until the end of 2020.[7]
