Summary
Title and name and address of photographer transcribed from item.
Summary: Formal studio portrait of Eleanor Doddridge Brannan, seated, wearing a hat, pearl necklace, pendant on a chain, gloves, and a long dress, trimmed at the collar and sleeves with lace and fur, and holding in her lap a large fur muff.
A duplicate print of the same image located in the same folder provides a slightly longer description: "Miss Eleanor Brannan, granddaughter of Chas. A Dana, editor N[ew] Y[ork] Sun. She will speak at open air meetings during Inaugural W[ee]k." This duplicate print also carries the stamp "Joint Suffrage Procession Committee, 1420 F Street Northwest, Washington, D.C," which together with the description, suggests that the image was taken prior to the March 3, 1913, suffrage procession. A later photograph of Brannan located in Container II:274 identifies her as a Massachusetts organizer of the National Woman's Party.
Eleanor Doddridge Brannan is the daughter of Eunice Dana Brannan, state chairman of the NWP New York Branch and member of the NWP executive committee who was arrested twice for picketing the White House.
