Stage comedienne Trixie Friganza is the subject of this 5 by 7 inch glass negative, which shows her speaking in New York and is captioned as a suffragette. The Bain News Service, a photo agency that supplied pictures to newspapers, wrote those caption details, and the record marks them as unverified, so the identification should be read with that in mind. New York in the late 1900s was a center of the campaign for women's suffrage, with street speakers and indoor meetings pressing for the vote, and performers with large public followings sometimes lent their names to the cause. The negative is part of the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress.
