Her father, Duncan Fletcher, was a US Senator, and in August 1921 he sent Kathleen O'Brennan two photos of his daughter, "Nellie". The letter has lots of useful information and is worth a look - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000586819 .

I wonder if the 1928 date on the back of this photo is not the actual date the photo was taken, and this is one of the photos sent with the letter ? Someone will know !

Edmonston, Maryland is 4km from Washington D.C. Can't quite figure out the link though.

"I. P. League Office, Gable & [?]" - Title inscribed on verso of photograph.

Perhaps Mr Gable is phoning his friend Dorothy ?!

I assume "I.P.League" was the Irish Progressive League which had it's office at 229 Lexington Avenue. NY. The man on the phone might be the poet Peter Golden who was General Secretary and who along with his sister Helen founded the IP league.
