NASA took a slinky into space on mission STS-51-F, also known as Space Shuttle Challenger mission in 1985. The slinky was used to demonstrate principles of microgravity in space.
The first toy slinky in space was in 1985 aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery during the STS-51-D mission. The slinky was used by NASA astronaut, Jeff Hoffman, to demonstrate the effects of microgravity on the toy's behavior.

The mission to bring a slinky to space was STS-121, part of the Space Shuttle program, launched in July 2006. The purpose was to show the effects of microgravity on the toy and its unique behavior in space.

The Discovery space shuttle took a Slinky up in 1985.
NASA took a slinky on board the Space Shuttle Atlantis in 1985 to demonstrate the concept of microgravity. The slinky floated and moved differently in space compared to on Earth, helping to illustrate physics principles.

I'm not sure there was a first person, but I think the first flight to have a slinky in space was Space Shuttle flight 51-D launched in 1985 with a crew of David Griggs, Charles Walker, Karol J. Bobko, Donald E. Williams, Rhea Seddon & Jeffrey Hoffman. It was a slinky toy called a slinky mouse
