Title	Maxine Elliott, circa 1897.
Contributors	Bushnell Photo Company (photographer)
Description	Three-quarter length character portrait of Maxine Elliott seated on a bench before an outdoor backdrop, wearing a hat with flowers and dress with puffy sleeves. Actress, producer, and theatre owner Maxine Elliott was born Jessie Dermot in Rockland, Maine on February 5, 1868. She debuted on stage in 1890, taking the stage name Maxine Elliott. She married and divorced two husbands, one of whom was fellow actor Nat C. Goodwin (whose name she sometimes used off-stage). The likely occasion for the inscription of this portrait was her performance in "An American Citizen" at Macauley's Theatre in March 1897. She starred in nine productions at Macauley's Theatre between March 1897 and January 1907, retired from the stage in 1920, and died March 5, 1940, in Juan les Pins, France. Inscription on print, lower center: Yours sincerely Maxine Elliott 1897. Location of photo studio: San Francisco (Calif.). Title supplied by cataloger.
