EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, taken in the year 1904, we find Lena Ashwell, a British actress and actor-manager, radiating an aura of determination and charisma. Born on September 28, 1872, Ashwell would go on to make a significant impact on the theatrical world, particularly during the tumultuous period of World War I. Ashwell is best known for her pioneering efforts to provide large-scale entertainment for the troops at the front lines. Her dedication to this cause began in 1915 when she organized the first major concert party to tour the Western Front. This groundbreaking initiative brought joy and morale to thousands of soldiers, making Ashwell a beacon of hope and inspiration during a time of great hardship. In addition to her work with the troops, Ashwell was also deeply involved in supporting the Three Arts Womens Employment Fund. This organization aimed to help women who had been left unemployed due to the war, and Ashwell's involvement extended to staging productions to raise much-needed funds. Her commitment to both the welfare of the troops and the employment of women during this challenging period speaks volumes about her compassionate nature and her unwavering dedication to her community. As we gaze upon this portrait of Lena Ashwell, we are reminded of the indomitable spirit of a woman who used her talents to bring joy, hope, and support to those in need during a time of great turmoil. Her legacy continues to inspire us today, as we reflect on the power of art and the human spirit to overcome adversity.
