Timeline[edit]

I changed from its inception in 1925 until and cut that because Flanner did not join The New Yorker until it was eight months old. There is also odd transitions at the end when the article goes over her different lovers. --216.220.102.254 04:44, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I changed the second occurrence of the date of her death, as it was 7 November 1978, not 17, which appeared simply to be a typo. Source: Janet, My Mother, and Me, pp 13-15. Fmclellan (talk) 11:42, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quakerism[edit]

Someone added the category "Quaker" to the commons category Janet Flanner. Is this really the case? She was born into a Quaker family, both her parents were Quakers. At the time the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) practised birthright, children were automatically recognised as members of the Society. However, there is little or no evidence that Janet Flanner practised. Her grandfather served as a substitute during the Civil War, her father drifted away from the Society towards the end of his life and eventually committed suicide ("The Rapid Rise and Tragic Fall of Frank W. Flanner", Stephen J. Taylor, 1.6.2015, Historic Indianapolis). There is, however, one indication that she may have remained in contact with Quakers, in Paris: an article of 5 June 1959 in The New Yorker describing Quaker activity in France and Switzerland ("Letter from Paris"). - MHM (talk) 07:39, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
