    Many news historians are now recognizing the Bain News Service's impact and influence on black history in the US. The BNS was one of the first news companies in the country to photograph black Americans in a humane light. We tend to forget that, not too long ago, black Americans were rarely portrayed in photographs, broadcasts or motion pictures as anything but savage brutes or circus clowns.

    WASHINGTON, DC, June 23, 1914" – The New York Times

    If Bain published this photograph ca. 1910-1915, it may have been in relation to the appointment of Bo Sweeney in 1914 as Assistant Secretary of the Interior.

    This is a photograph of the former Lillian E. Reeves (1880-1929) who married Bo Sweeney on February 2, 1898. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Reeves of Trinidad, Colorado.[1]

    Bo Sweeney (1862-1917) was a native of Missouri, practiced law and was a state representative (D) in Colorado, before moving to Seattle. He served as an assistant Secretary of the Interior with Secretary Lane from 1914 to 1917. Bo died suddenly of a heart attack in Washington in 1917. [2] [3] [4]
