Mildred Jessie Berryman (September 22, 1901 โ€“ November 7, 1972), who went by "Berry":โ€Š66โ€Š (also spelled "Barrie"), was an early 20th century American pioneering researcher of lesbian and gay community in post-WWI Utah. She was also a photographer, a mineral merchant, and a manufacturing business co-owner with her girlfriend of over three decades.

She was super rad, there wasn't any info here so I wanted to at least link to her Wikipedia: Mildred wikipedia
