Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

Annie Leibovitz was born #OTD in 1949. + Rolling Stone’s chief photographer for 10 yrs w/142 covers + Living Legend designation, Library of Congress, for her original contributions to America's cultural heritage + 1st woman to have an exhibition at Washington's Nat'l Portrait Gallery #photography

A color photograph of the iconic American portrait photographer Annie Leibovitz (born October 2, 1949), celebrated for her era-defining celebrity portraits and her designation as a Library of Congress Living Legend. Facing forward, she maintains a serene, knowing expression with a slight, subtle smile, looking directly at the camera through rectangular, black-rimmed eyeglasses. Her long, silver-gray hair is loosely styled, swept slightly to one side. She is dressed in her signature utilitarian style, wearing a dark gray, long-sleeved button-down collared shirt with the sleeves relaxed and rolled up past her forearms. Her right hand rests confidently on her hip, while her left hand grips the top of a professional, medium-format Hasselblad film camera mounted securely on a tripod directly in front of her chest. The composition places her centrally within a weathered setting featuring textured, dark green wooden doors and a rough concrete wall to the right. In the upper left background, a large, circular studio light ring glows with a warm, ambient golden luminosity, functioning as a halo-like visual anchor that contrasts with the dark, moody environment. The overall atmosphere is intimate and authoritative, symbolizing a legendary artist standing alongside the essential tools of her historic craft.

Dr. Esther Boise Van Deman was the first female Roman field archaeologist. In 1907, she revolutionized the field by realizing changing brick & ancient concrete styles could date ruins. Her framework remains the standard for dating Roman monuments today.️ She was born #OTD in 1862. #WomenInSTEM

A formal sepia-toned studio portrait of Dr. Esther Boise Van Deman (1862–1937), the first woman to specialize in Roman field archaeology and the first woman to receive a Ph.D. in Latin from the University of Chicago. Dr. Van Deman is seated, facing forward with her body turned slightly to the left. She gazes directly at the camera with a calm, intelligent, and subtly pleasant expression. Her graying hair is swept upward and meticulously styled into a soft, rolled pompadour bun pinned at the top of her head. She wears an elegant, dark, patterned brocade or jacquard jacket over a lighter silk blouse. The neckline and front cuffs of the outfit are heavily adorned with intricate, wide white lace trimming that adds a formal, dignified texture to her attire. Her right arm curves gently across her lap, showing a hint of lace at the wrist. The lighting is soft and directional, illuminating the side of her face and chest while casting the background into a deep, warm, dark vignette. The composition is balanced and classic, projecting a mood of scholarly authority, refinement, and historic achievement befitting a trailblazer in scientific archaeology.

Behavioral biologist Dr. Victoria Braithwaite: the first person to demonstrate that fish feel pain. Her groundbreaking research impacted animal welfare research & changed guidelines for the treatment of fish in laboratories & fisheries in Europe, Canada & beyond. She died #OTD in 2019. #WomenInSTEM

Candid color photograph of British behavioral biologist Dr. Victoria A. Braithwaite (1967–2019), renowned for pioneering research proving fish feel pain, sitting inside a science laboratory. Captured from a slightly elevated angle, she sits angled right in a black office chair while turning her upper body and head toward the camera, exuding a warm and inviting presence. She wears a white lab coat open over a black-and-white striped turtleneck sweater and blue jeans. Her short, light brown hair frames a cheerful, smiling face. Behind her, shelves hold numerous glass jars filled with specimen liquids, while a desktop computer, microscope, and lab equipment clutter the desk. The composition positions her as the focal point against a backdrop of active scientific inquiry, conveying an intellectual and passionate mood. This photograph highlights her historic contributions to animal welfare, notably altering guidelines for treating fish in laboratories and fisheries.

Scientist, inventor & women's rights campaigner Eunice Foote died #OTD in 1888. She was the first to demonstrate the greenhouse effect (heat-absorbing properties) of carbon dioxide (CO2), laying the scientific groundwork for #climatechange research. #WomenInSTEM

A warm-toned, sepia-style artistic illustration depicting Eunice Newton Foote, a 19th-century American scientist, viewed from behind in a softly lit laboratory setting. She stands facing away from the viewer, her back to us, wearing a period-appropriate mid-19th-century dress with puffed short sleeves, an off-the-shoulder neckline, and a full skirt. Her dark hair is styled in an elegant updo with soft curls and a decorative comb or ribbon at the back. She holds an open scientific notebook or paper in both hands at chest height, reading it attentively. The background shows a detailed Victorian-era lab interior with wooden shelves, glass apparatus including tall cylinders and tubes, a bell jar, a thermometer or barometer-like instrument, and other scientific equipment on tables and walls, evoking a sense of quiet discovery and early experimental science.
