"Laura Carter Holloway Langford (August 22, 1843 - July 10, 1930) was an American journalist, author, and lecturer from New York. She worked as a reporter and editor for the Brooklyn Eagle and published several books, notably The Ladies of the White House (1870), a group biography of the First Ladies of the United States that became a bestseller with 150,000 copies sold worldwide. A spiritualist, suffragist, and progressive who joined the Theosophical Society in the 1870s and held an array of radical and alternative beliefs, Holloway was a lifelong friend of Anna White of the Mount Lebanon Shaker Society."
