The only identification for this glass negative is the name Ruth Miller, and the record notes that even this comes from unverified data written on the negative or its caption card. The Bain News Service, founded in New York by George Grantham Bain in 1901, supplied newspapers with news photographs and portraits, and it relied on glass plates as its working medium for much of its output. With no date recorded, the sitter's identity and the circumstances of the picture remain open questions, best pursued through the caption cards and related files.
