Description
This early 20th century US Political History photo features Hattie Wyatt Caraway, who served for 14 years in the US Senate and established a number of “firsts,” including her 1932 election victory to the upper chamber of the US Congress. Popularly referred to as ‘Silent Hattie’, owing to having spoken on the floor just 15 times during her career, she drew upon the power of the widow’s mandate and vociferously supported New Deal reforms, which aided her predominantly agricultural state, Arkansas. Photo taken on May 22, 1914.
