Eleanor Roosevelt, the former First Lady, appears here in a head-and-shoulders study taken around 1945, a period when she was no longer in the White House but was active in public life. Known for her work on human rights and her later role as a United Nations delegate, she was among the most visible women in the country during and after the Second World War. The Library of Congress holds this print in its Prints and Photographs Division, and it was registered with the U.S. Copyright Office, a common step that made photographs of public figures part of the official record.
