    It's good to see her!
  • pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
    Except that Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906) would have been dead several years before this photo was taken, and very much older than this woman had she lived into the 1910s. The photo caption seems to refer to the banner's text, rather than to the woman carrying the banner.
  • Barbara (LOC P&P) said:
    pennylrichardsca: Good point--the original caption that we used as the title doesn't appear to tell the whole story. We'll look into clarifying the title in our source data and reloading the description to Flickr.

[Daisy Harriman addresses a Democratic rally in Union Square, New York City] (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Homer Williams said:
    The banner is for the Woman's National Wilson and Marshall Organization. The New York Times states that Mrs. J. Borden (Daisy) Harriman was the founder and chairman. They were active at least through the 1912 election. See: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9805E2DB123CE633A...
  • Richard Norton said:
    Florence Jaffray "Daisy" Harriman (July 21, 1870 – August 31, 1967) was an American socialite, suffragist, social reformer, organizer, and later, a courageous diplomat. “She led one of the suffrage parades down Fifth Avenue, worked on campaigns on child labor and safe milk and, as minister to Norway in World War II, organized evacuation efforts while hiding in a forest from the Nazi invasion. "In her ninety-second year, U.S. President John F. Kennedy honored her by awarding her the first “Citation of Merit for Distinguished Service.” She often found herself in the middle of historic events. As she stated, “I think nobody can deny that I have always had through sheer luck. . . a box seat at the America of my times.” Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_Jaffray_Harriman

    Richard Arthur Norton: Thanks for pointing us to Harriman's full name. We'll add it to the description next time we update the record.
  • Wystan said:
    LOC has mislabeled this photo. That actually is Mrs. Vibbirt speaking, while Daisy Harriman stands silent beside her.

    Another Bain/LOC photo of Mrs. Vibbirt, speaker for the Woman's National Wilson and Marshall Organization, addressing a rally in Union Square, New York City, August 20, 1913: Daisy Harriman tosses campaign buttons into the crowd: Boys in the Union Square crowd grab for the buttons, almost starting a riot:
