Title
Katharine G. Halligan portrait, undated
Description
Katharine G. Halligan was a member of the executive committee for the Pennsylvania branch of the National Woman's Party. As Caroline Katzenstein mentions in her history of the suffrage movement, 'Lifting the Curtain,' Halligan devised a special moving platform for speakers at suffrage street meetings. Katzenstein stresses the importance of street meetings in reaching an otherwise inaccessible audience, and the roving rostrums, called Halligan Stumpsters, were integral to the speakers' success.
