Fred Warner Carpenter, born in 1873, is the named subject of this c1909 portrait, though the record gives no further detail about who he was. The print belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Bain founded a news photography service in New York in the early 1900s, and his files hold pictures of people in the news, public events, and city life from that period. The name and birth year come from old caption cards that have not been independently verified, so they are best read as the archive's working identification.
