It's the fourth Grand Slam tournament title as a team for the top-seeded Black and Huber. They also won Wimbledon in 2005 and 2007, and the Australian Open in 2007.
They didn't drop a set at Flushing Meadows.
Black also won this year's U.S. Open mixed doubles title, pairing with Leander Paes to beat Huber and Jamie Murray.
The 10th-seeded Raymond and Stosur, the 2005 U.S. Open champions, also were the runners-up at Wimbledon this year, losing to Venus and Serena Williams in that final.
The Williams sisters didn't enter the U.S. Open doubles event.
