Who is Edith Clifford?

1. the wife of the guy who wrote "Clifford, the Big, Red Dog" (Ransac's guess)
2. the founder of "The Fine Arts", a dance studio in London (EricBess' guess)
3. the daughter of shipping magnate Eugene C. Clifford (Sleepy's guess)
4. a famous author and poet, who won a Pulitzer Prize for her work American Primitive (Apollo's guess)
5. a poet (Gerode's guess)
6. Archie's wife; her maiden name was Edith Clifford (sageridder's guess)
7. the first black congresswoman in the state of Maine (Chaos Turtle's guess)
8. a Dutch actor (Turd Cutter's guess)
9. the first woman to serve in the British House of Commons (Baskil's guess)
10. a stripper (DUke's guess)
11. Herman Melville's mistress (Melkor's guess)
12. a famous sword swallower who worked for Barnum & Bailey circus in Vienna (correct answer)
13. the woman who served as the inspiration for the comic strip character Blondie Bumstead (Sammy Dead-O's guess)

Well, it looks like it was too many choices for a lot of you. Baskil narrowly edged out Apollo for BSig the others; 3 guessed Baskil's while 2 guessed Apollo's. Most of the others were spread out. Unfortunately for EricBess, Sleepy also picked the correct answer, denying him Dasher bonus points.

sageridder picked 2, EricBess' guess
Ransac and Gerode picked 4, Apollo's guess
DUke picked 5, Gerode's guess
Turd Cutter picked 6, sageridder's guess
Baskil picked 7, Chaos Turtle's guess
Darsh, Chaos Turtle, and Apollo picked 9, Baskil's guess
EricBess and Sleepy picked 12, the correct answer
Melkor picked 13, Sammy Dead-O's guess
