5" by 7" Mary C. Newell, known as "Princess Chinquilla," was a vaudeville performer, tightwire walker, activist and lecturer on Native subjects. While there has been some historical question of Newell's true ethnic identity, she was generally lauded for co-founding the American Indian Club, a fraternal organization in New York for Native Americans, as well as her work with the American Indian Association which assisted Native peoples working in New York find housing.
