Portrait of Charles Curtis in Topeka, Kansas

In January of 1907 Charles Curtis became the first person of Native American ancestry to serve in the United States Senate after being selected to fill a vacancy by the Kansas legislature. Curtis later became the first Kansas Senator elected by popular vote, and was elected Vice President under President Herbert Hoover. This is autographed portrait of Charles Curtis seated reading a book in Topeka, Kansas, November 18, 1914, a few days after the first popular vote election of a Kansas Senator.
