Florence Earle Coates (1850-1927)

While portrayed as "The Tragic Muse" by artist Violet Oakley (1912),
unanimously elected Poet Laureate of Pennsylvania by the state's Federation of Women's Clubs (1915),
and
deemed "the Philadelphia Sappho" by author and actress Cornelia Otis Skinner (1948), Florence Earle Coates is perhaps best represented
through her own life and work
—
as an ambassador of Hope.
