The purpose of the present article is to shed light on diplomatic work of Florence Harriman (1870–1964), appointed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt as the United States’ minister to Norway in 1937. In recognition of her long and distinguished public service, especially in women’s clubs of the Democratic Party, and thanks to efforts of female activists from Eleanor Roosevelt’s circles – she was placed, as the second American woman in the history of diplomacy, at the head of a diplomatic mission in Oslo in 1937–1940.
