Portia Willis Fitzgerald (b. c1887) was daughter of a Congressman, Col. Benjamin Willis. She was active in the suffrage movement, and was referred to as "The Prettiest Suffragette in New York State." She lectured widely and was grand marshal of several suffrage parades. She was also active in the peace movement, leading the Women's Peace Parade in 1914, and a member of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. She was active with the Red Cross during WWI. She married in 1925, to Capt. L. Rodney Berg; he died in 1941; she married a prince next; she married her third husband Gerald Fitzgerald, in 1958.

NYT of January 16, 1916 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F10711FB3E5F17738... lists her as a speaker at the final luncheon of the peace conference to which Henry Ford took U.S. delegates.

Google Translate oddly translates Steenhoff to Steen Hoffman.
