Photo shows Florence Jaffray Hurst "Daisy" Harriman, chairman and founder of the Women's National Wilson and Marshall organisation with banner. The New York Times states that Mrs. Harriman was the founder and chairman of the organisation which was active at least through the 1912 election. Florence Jaffray "Daisy" Harriman (July 21, 1870 – August 31, 1967) was an American socialite, suffragist, social reformer, organiser, and diplomat. “She led one of the suffrage parades down Fifth Avenue, worked on campaigns on child labour and safe milk and, as minister to Norway in World War II, organised evacuation efforts while hiding in a forest from the Nazi invasion.” In her ninety-second year, U.S. President John F. Kennedy honoured her by awarding her the first “Citation of Merit for Distinguished Service.” She often found herself in the middle of historic events. As she stated, “I think nobody can deny that I have always had through sheer luck a box seat at the America of my times.” Image reproduction rights can be found in the link near the bottom of this description.
