January 1943. Washington, D.C. “Girl in the doorway of her room at a boardinghouse.” With photographer Esther Bubley (or sister Enid) front and center. Medium format negative for the Office of War Information.
This mystery woman came from a small metal box of slides I found in a thrift store; they all appear to have been professionally done. There are various index tabs in the tray that may or may not be the names of the photographers who took the photos but other than that no idea what this is about. She is very elegant except for the 3-pack-a-day look around the eyes.
