Admiral Tsai-Ling Kan, Seattle, February 3, 1922

Born in 1863, Ella McBride began working in the photography field in 1909 when she managed the Edward Curtis Studio. She opened her own studio in 1917 with Wayne Albee.

This photograph was taken before the McBride-Anderson partnership began; it is not known which partner was the photographer. Handwritten on image: Admiral Tsai Ling Kan 2-3-22.
