    That's Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, the former Irene Langhorn (d. 1956), and Mrs. Borden Harriman, the former Florence Jaffray (1870-1967), leader of the Women's Fusion League. They were campaigning together for Mayor Mitchel in October 1913. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_Jaffray_Harriman Both women are in earlier images in LOC uploads to Flickr Commons.

    Another Bain/LOC photo of Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson (whose husband was a famous artist, who drew the "Gibson Girl") campaining for the Fusion Ticket of New York City Mayoral candidate John Purroy Mitchel, who was victorious in the November election (Bain mistakenly identifies Mrs. Gibson as Mrs. Harriman):
  • Ryan (LOC P&P) said:
    Wystan: The photo you've posted is incorrectly captioned. You'll notice in the original photograph, the woman on the left is identified as Mrs. J. B. Harriman. This is the woman identified as Mrs. C. Gibson, with a question mark. And, I am uncertain about her identity as well. Pennylrichardsca: I wonder if you will note the number of an image from a previous upload in which Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson is identified from this time period. Thanks.
  • pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
    Sure--here's another photo labeled as featuring Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2163902620/ and another: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/4445869566/

    OK, Thanks pennylrichardsca, I finally found an article confirming her as a part of this movement. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B0CEED6163DE633A... I wasn't sure it was the same woman, as in the other photographs we have of her, she appears more as a socialite. We'll fill in the title information to as many records as we are able to.

    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...

    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
  • Anne (LOC P&P) said:
    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:
