Description: Photograph of Katharine Cornell as a baby Caption reads as follows: The black-eyed little lady of the wicker wastebasket is, of course, Dr. Peter Cornell's handsome young daughter Katharine, who was posing for one of her earliest photographs. She seems to have been, even then, very much Katharine Cornell, with a firm grasp of the basket and the situation in general, with a surprising physical accuracy and singleness of purpose. She reached the inevitable gangling, awkward age a little later, but in all the violently reckless forms of activity in which she delighted, there was an odd, free-swinging grace—the same grace that has been the hallmark of all her acting from Little Women to The Wingless Victory. In the book publication of the Stage serial printing, the photograph is captioned, "At the age of 2".
