Anita Lily Pollitzer (October 31, 1894, Charleston, South Carolina - July 3, 1975) was an American photographer, and suffragette. ==Early life and Education== Anita Lily Pollitzer was born October 31, 1894 in Charleston, South Carolina.〔〔 Her mother, Clara Guinzburg Pollitzer (born Clara Guinzburg), was the daughter of an immigrant rabbi from Prague.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://americancivilwar.com/women/Womens_Suffrage/Anita_Pollistzer.html )〕 Her father, Gustave Pollitzer, ran a cotton company at Charleston, South Carolina.〔 Anita Pollitzer had two sisters, Carrie (born 1881) and Mabel (born 1885) and a brother, Richard. Anita was raised Jewish and, as a young woman, taught Sabbath school in Charleston at Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim. Despite this upbringing, she is later described as being a "nonobservant" Jew and relied upon her own strength over religious beliefs. A digital history of the Pollitzer family highlights this family story: "Mabel stated in prayer, 'God gave me mountains to climb and the strength to climb them,' to which Anita responded, 'I don’t want God to give me mountains to climb…I want to find my own.' Anita graduated from Memminger High School in 1913 and left Charleston to study art at Columbia University's Teacher's College.〔〔 In December 1928, she married Elie Charlier Edson, Pete Seeger's uncle. The couple moved to New York City and lived in an apartment on West 115th St. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anita Pollitzer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
