In this photograph taken in Trenton, New Jersey on April 15,1970, Legislator Millicent Fernwick is depicted lighting up her pipe at her desk in the State Assembly. With determination and conviction etched across her face, she embodies the spirit of a trailblazing woman pushing for change. As an advocate for women's rights, Fernwick is spearheading efforts to secure a new bill of rights specifically tailored to empower the women of New Jersey. The image captures both the historical significance and timeless elegance of this moment. The monochromatic backdrop accentuates the seriousness with which Fernwick approaches her role as a legislator. Her eyeglasses add an air of intellect and sophistication while serving as a symbol of clarity through which she envisions progress.

Her choice to smoke a tobacco pipe further challenges societal norms by defying traditional expectations placed upon women.
