她生于一個黑奴家庭，而且曾受到奴隶主的性骚扰。奴隶主向哈丽特·雅各布斯表示如果她不服从，他就會把她的孩子卖掉。後來哈丽特·雅各布斯躲在祖母房子屋顶下的一个狭小的空间里。在那里呆了七年之后，她逃到美國北部。後來她成為一位保姆，并与废奴主义者和女权主义者取得联系。

南北战争期间和刚结束時，她与女儿一起前往联邦佔領下的美利堅聯盟國部分地区，并为獲得自由的奴隶建立了两所学校。

注釋
  1. Many recent editions of her autobiography call her "Harriet A. Jacobs" or "Harriet Ann Jacobs". Her biographer and editor Jean Fagan Yellin uses "Harriet A. Jacobs" on the title page and "Jacobs, Harriet Ann" in the index (p. 330) of her edition of the autobiography.[2] However, in her 2004 biography Harriet Jacobs: A Life, Yellin consistently uses the name "Harriet Jacobs" without any middle name or middle initial. In the index she is listed (on p. 384) as "Jacobs, Harriet". Not a single of the many documents cited in both books has a middle name "Ann". The inscription on the tombstone simply reads "Harriet Jacobs".
  2. Her biographer Yellin gives 1813 as the year of her birth, without detailing day, month or season.[3] Her tombstone, however, gives February 11, 1815, as the date of her birth (see picture at the end of the article). Mary Maillard, who would in 2017 become the editor of the letters of Jacobs's daughter, argues in favor of 1815 in an article published in 2013.[4] The dates and ages in this article are given according to Yellin.
