Identified reverse Betty Briggs Writer for N.E.A. March 26, 1927. 

Newspaper article found online (also 1927) shows Betty writing her story digging in the last gasps of the Nevada gold rush. She was practicing immersive journalism / blogging about 90 years early. 

Progressive barn coat, high laced boots, a cavalry American flag sticking out of her satchel and an expression that makes me wish that I could have met her. 

Press photo trimmed to 5 x 7.25” w/ bend at the top margin.
