OriginalRuth Muskrat Bronson
Reason
I'm not quite sure about my crop (those wanting to try their own hand can find the pre-crop restoration at [1] - I restored everything, including parts I was pretty sure I'd crop out.) but the image is highly encyclopædic, and minority women, particularly Native Americans, tend to be under-photographed relative to their importance. It's a very good photo of her at a key point in her political activities (just around the time of her meeting with President Calvin Cooleridge)

  • Support as the author of the biography. Truly difficult to find images of minority women and this one is quite striking and relevant. SusunW (talk) 21:55, 22 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
