CAHC 2006.29.8Description
Edna St. Vincent Millay - age 15
This image of Edna St. Vincent Millay was taken by her aunt Clementine Parsons, known as "Auntie Clem" or "Auntie Kem."
The back of the photo is inscribed by Mrs. Parsons to Millay's best friend Corinne Sawyer:
Dear Corinne
This is a snap shot I took of Vincent when she was 15 and made us a visit. It is a good likeness but not a real clear picture, because she was coming toward me when I "snapped" her.
I'm sure that you will see a familiar expression of those school-girl chum days.
I hope that you will love it, as I do.
