Paul Thompson

This is one of several brief features that appeared in newspapers around the United States in the 1910s and 1920s spotlighting Greene as one of the nation's highest-earning woman professionals. The portrait is derived from a full-length photographic portrait taken by Paul Thompson in 1915 or earlier; it has been cropped and silhouetted and the orientation reversed.
