Dora Doscher and the 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter
Dora Doscher stood five feet four inches and became the model for Herman MacNeil’s 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter. Karl Ritter also modeled Diana after her, with the same figure later atop the Pulitzer Fountain. Doscher balanced writing, lecturing, and nursing, and the mint halted 1917 production to upgrade artistry. Upon return, minor design changes appeared including a new hairdo and rearranged reverse eagle and stars.
