www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2909004787/ and www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2850356157/ are at the same event. Mrs Macy is Anne Sullivan Macy

I wonder if this might be the International Flower Show in New York City. The inaugural show was held in April 1913 and Helen Keller was reported to have visited there, as she was doing a speaking tour (her first in NY) at the time. (source, NY Times March 31, 1913, Monday ... "Helen Keller...appeared on the lecture platform for the first time in New York last night at the Forty-eighth Street Theatre.")

Further digging, and yes, this was in April 1913, per this story/photo in The Indianapolis Star, 14 April 1913, page 10, col 2
Famous Blind Girl Honored at Flower Show.
Mrs John Macy, Miss Helen Keller
-Copyright, International.
"Miss Helen Keller, the famous deaf, dumb and blind woman, was one of the
prominent visitors at the international flower show held in New York. She was
presented with the prize American Beauty roses. She is shown with Mrs. John
Macy of the presentation committee." -

Swang - Is "Mrs. John Macy of the presentation committee" the same Mrs. John A. Macy who was previously known as Anne Sullivan?

Brenda Anderson said:
I'm sure it is... and I'm not 100% convinced that the Indianapolis Star was correct in their caption of "Mrs John Macy of the presentation committee". It is indeed Mrs John (Ann Sullivan) Macy, but was she really on the presentation committee?

Sybil Appleton (1899-1973) worked with the American Committee for Devastated France (ACDF) in 1921: www.afs.org/archon/index.php?p=collections/controlcard&am... She married Oliver Wolcott (1891-1967) in 1922, and they had three children (Helen, Augusta, and Oliver). Here's Sybil and Oliver's tombstone, elsewhere on Flickr:
