Eleanor Moreland Kaufman


 Eleanor Moreland Kaufman

I was going through my old pictures and I found one of Mom when she was a little girl. On the bottom right hand corner of the photo it says the photographer was  “Hartsook Photo” SF – LA   ( San Francisco – Los Angeles )


 So just for kicks I thought, I would see if I could find him on the internet. I found him on Wikipedia.



 After reading it, I found out that this guy was a famous photographer. He took pictures of 


Carlyle Blackwell, 1915

Champ Clark, 1915

Geraldine Farrar, 1915

Lillian Gish, 1915

Blanche Sweet, 1915

Mack Sennett, 1916

Charlotte Burton, 1916

Mary Pickford, 1918

Henry Ford, 1919

Charles Lindbergh, 1927

and sitting President Woodrow Wilson


Mom was born in Chicago Illinois in 1917 so that would be about the right time the photo was taken. My question is; "What was Mom doing in California at that time at her age?” Questions, Questions and nobody to ask.
