- Description:
- Letter from Hazel Beamer (before she took her married surname of Cutler, and who lived from 1901-1980) to her aunt Sara “Sallie” Baker (1862-1953). The undated letter describes how much she appreciates her family's support of her career, particularly its slow growth, and how helpful portrait painter and stage designer Ben Ali Haggin, III (1882-1951) has been with introducing her to influential people. She mentions having tea with dancer, actress, and model Florence O'Denishawn, taking “buck and wing” tap dance lessons, updates Baker about family friends who recently moved to New York, and expresses thanks to her mother for sending her a package.
