Description

This picture of Edna St. Vincent Millay and some of her female friends was probably taken shortly before her graduation from Camden High School in 1909.

Just three years later Vincent, as she was known, took the literary world by storm with the publication of her poem "Renascence" in the Lyric Year. She is in the back row, third from right.
