Also frequented by Academy Award,winning actress Ethel Barrymore, it was here that CharlesDana Gibson sketched his iconic ,Gibson Girl., Whether following First Lady Frances Cleveland,s trendsetting fashion or the well-publicized wedding of Cecil Clark and Richard Harding Davis, the eyes of America were firmly planted on Marion,s sparkling shores and glittering guests.
