Portrait of Carrie Hardy

One of the Ypsilanti High School yearbooks from the 20s was formally dedicated to Carrie Hardy. The yearbook includes this portrait. I find so much expression in her face and so much written there.

Things I see in her expression are: an unwillingness to put up with foolishness, anger, sadness, a sly sense of humor, resentment, weariness, a desire for order.

Great bone structure

She looks amused to me.

She does look amused, now that you mention it. Maybe in a very wry way.
