Image Info

Edna St. Vincent Millay and several friends are shown at a Sunday school picnic at Oakland Park in Rockport.

From left are Jess Hosmer, Ethel Knight, Gladys Snelley, Martha Knight, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and Corinne Sawyer.

The photo was taken July 1912, just a month before Millay's "discovery" at Whitehall Inn in Camden. She later attended Vassar and became and became the first woman to win a Pulitzer Prize for poetry.
