I want to see a picture of Louisa May Alcott


Search
: louisa may alcott

Why: I just watched Little Women. Winona Ryder plays her autobiographical character Jo.

Answer: Here she is. Uncanny!

The More You Know: Unlike Jo, Louisa never married. However, there has been speculation that Ralph W. Emerson was the inspiration for Friedrich's character. Louisa was Emerson's children's governess, and Emerson was a colleague of her father Bronson Alcott.
