In December 1923, Bryant married William Christian Bullitt Jr. '13, former assistant secretary of state. In this photo, Bryant is holding their daughter, Anne, who was born the following February. In 1925 the couple adopted a Turkish boy, Refik, here standing at left.

Bryant sent several trunks of Reed’s papers to his Harvard biographers in 1935, insisting that the papers revert to Anne when the book was done. They remained, however, at Harvard. Bryant’s own papers were sent to William Bullitt after her death in 1936 (the two had divorced in 1930). Bryant’s and Bullitt’s papers are now at the Yale library, in accordance with Anne’s wish that they be used for scholarship.
