EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, Philander Chase Knox, a prominent American lawyer and politician, is depicted in formal attire, seated at a table with his wife, Lillian Smith Knox. Knox served as the Attorney General of the United States from 1911 to 1913, following his tenure as a Senator from Pennsylvania from 1904 to 1909 and again from 1917 to 1921. Prior to his political career, he held various legal positions, including serving as a partner in the prestigious law firm of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, captures Knox's serious and authoritative demeanor, while Lillian Smith Knox, dressed in an elegant gown, offers a warm and supportive expression. The photograph is a testament to the powerful and influential role that Knox played in American politics during the early 20th century. The image is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which documents the people, places, and events of the time. Philander Chase Knox was born on January 14, 1852, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He attended Princeton University and the University of Pennsylvania Law School before beginning his legal career. Throughout his political career, he was known for his strong commitment to the Republican Party and his dedication to upholding the law. After leaving the Attorney General position, he went on to serve as Secretary of State from 1909 to 1913. Knox passed away on December 14, 1921, leaving behind a lasting legacy as a respected American statesman. This photograph is a valuable historical record of a significant figure in American history, and it offers a glimpse into the personal and professional lives of the Knox family during the early 1900s. The image is a reminder of the important role that lawyers and politicians play in shaping the course of history, and it serves as an inspiration for future generations to continue the pursuit of justice and the betterment of society.
