Tennie Claflin 1845-1923 was the younger sister of Victoria Woodhull one of the leaders of the nineteenth-century woman's suffrage movement and the first woman to run for President of the United States in 1872. Together they became notorious as the first female Wall Street brokers. It was rumored that Cornelius Vanderbilt underwrote their business and that Tennie was his mistress.
