Dorothy Brant Brazier & Anna Roosevelt Boettiger
I have started a new research project about Seattle women’s page editors Dorothy Brant Brazier & Anna Roosevelt Boettiger (pictured about with her mother, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt).
Dorothy Brant Brazier was 1964 Penney-Missouri Award winner for her work at the Seattle Times. She was the women’s page editor at the Times from 1931 through the 1970s.
Anna Roosevelt Boettiger was the women’s page editor at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer from 1936 through the 1943. I learned about Anna while doing research last week for a sidebar to go with my article about P-I women’s page journalist Bobbi McCallum.
I plan to collect articles by the two women and begin an analysis.

Hello Kimbery, I am searching for information and photographs about Dorothy's grandfather, David Alexander, and his homestead on Mercer Island, Washington. All that I have been able to obtain thus far is an unpublished manuscript by Dorothy, recounting her memories of the home on the island and her visits with her grandfather. I am documenting the history of the property, which remains intact. Any help would be of value. Thanks,
Dave Eck

How great to hear from you. I will email you to set up a time. (I just started reading Mother & Daughter: The Letters of Eleanor & Anna Roosevelt.)

Hi Kimberly,
Anna was my grandmother. I'm happy to put you in touch with my father if you have specific questions about Anna's days in Seattle.
