Artifact Overview
Frank Dorrance Hopley (1872-1933) authored stories and articles for national magazines and newspapers. In 1921, Hopley had an idea for an article--he would ask famous individuals to share their life's most thrilling moment. Charles Evans Hughes, one-time Republican presidential candidate and Secretary of State, feared answering all submitted requests would impede his work; he declined to answer.
