1930Best.-Nr. 101415circ 1930's. 1930's. Very good. - An 3-3/8 inch high by 2-1/4 inch wide photograph possibly from a magazine mounted on white paper stock with an ink ruled frame itself mounted on a 5-7/8 inch high by 3-3/8 inch brown card stock with an Art Nouveau illustration on the verso. The corners of the portrait and mounts are attractively cropped. The photo depicts the American journalist Walter Lippmann from the shoulders up and is inscribed & signed to the future U.S. Congressman Seymour Halpern along the bottom border of the mount "To Seymour Halpern with all good wishes / Walt Lippmann". The photograph is lightly rubbed with some light soiling to the mount. Very good. The American journalist Walter Lippmann 1889-1974 is famous for being among one of the first to introduce the concept of the Cold War. He also coined the term "stereotype" in its psychological meaning. Throughout his 60 year career Lippmann critiqued media and democracy through his Public Opinion column and in several books which he authored. Lippmann served as director of Woodrow Wilson's post World War I board of inquiry. His views of the role of journalism were in contrast with those of John Dewey and their exchange of opinions came to be known as the Lippmann-Dewey Debate. Lippmann was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for his column "Today and Tomorrow" and another for his interview with Nikita Krushchev. The Queens New York Republican Congressman Seymour Halpern 1913-1997 started his political career as a campaign aide to New York's powerful mayor Fiorella La Guardia and first served in New York's State Senate for 14 years before seeking a seat in the U.S. Congress. In Albany Halpern sponsored 279 bills that became law including measures on schools housing civil rights nutrition and mental health. A Liberal he was something of an anomaly as the lone Republican representative from New York City and generally garnered support from Labor Unions and endorsement from the Liberal Party. Yet he never even considered switching parties as he considered membership in the Republican Party a family tradition and commitment. While he found ample time for his private pursuits including painting and collecting autographs he took his legislative duties very seriously. Of these he was proudest of his co-sponsorship of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and of the original 1965 Medicare legislation. circ [1930's].
