EDITORS COMMENTS
Anne Henrietta Martin, a trailblazing figure of the 1910s, is depicted in this striking black and white portrait as the National Chairman of the National Women's Party (NWP) in 1917. Martin, also known as "Little Governor Anne," was the first woman to hold this position within the organization. Her tenure as chair came during a pivotal moment in American history, as women's suffrage was on the brink of becoming a reality. Born in 1878, Martin was an activist, suffragist, and pacifist who made history by becoming the first woman to run for the United States Senate. Her commitment to social justice and equality extended beyond women's rights, as she was also an author and a pacifist. This photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio, captures Martin's determination and strength. The image is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its commitment to documenting significant moments in American history. Martin's legacy as a pioneering woman leader continues to inspire generations. Her unwavering dedication to social justice and equality paved the way for future activists and politicians. This portrait serves as a powerful reminder of the important role women have played in shaping the course of American history.
