Whoever posting these photos isn’t doing any research. They posted many photos of Johanna Lawrenson with the caption that she’s Anita Hoffman. It’s simply the wrong person. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AhoffmanSon (talk • contribs) 01:37, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@AhoffmanSon: This was so labeled by the Library of Congress, https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2020731099/ Looks like Alamy.com agrees, these are clearly pictures of the same person as in this photo: https://www.alamy.com/search.html?qt=anita%20kushner But Getty Images seems to agree with you, it labels these images Johanna Lawrenson: https://www.gettyimages.com/photos/johanna-lawrenson The LoC does get some things wrong, and welcomes correction. Can you provide evidence to clarify the situation? --GRuban (talk) 15:42, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Looking further, I think you are right. I will write the Library of Congress and see whether they agree. However more evidence is very welcome. --GRuban (talk) 16:04, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Library of Congress agrees; it usually takes them some weeks to make the changes in their copies, but it looks like they will be made. --GRuban (talk) 20:47, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
