Gemini Pro Sketch
The following biographical sketch was produced using artificial intelligence and may contain mistakes.
Anna Blaire Harley was born on April 22, 1880, in Crawfordsville, Indiana. Growing up in the American Midwest during a period of significant industrial expansion, she identified as Jewish. At 26, Harley married Morris Selko on January 18, 1907, in Marion, Indiana; their marriage license had been issued three days prior. Selko, a Jewish immigrant, was born in Łódź, Poland, then part of the Russian Empire, and came to the United States around 1900.
The marriage between Anna and Morris proved brief. They divorced around 1910 in Indianapolis. A public notice, placed by Morris Selko in The Indianapolis News on September 10, 1910, declared that Anna B. Selko had “left my bed and board” and that he would not be responsible for her debts, reflecting the public nature of marital separations during that era. Despite their separation, the couple had one son, Daniel Theodore Selko, born on May 12, 1908, in Indianapolis. By 1920, Anna Blaire Harley was working as an office manager in a tailor’s shop, a common professional role for women in the post-World War I economy.
Anna Blaire Harley lived for several more decades in Indianapolis. She died there on June 7, 1960, at the age of 80. Her burial took place two days later, on June 9, 1960, at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis. Through her son, Daniel Theodore Selko, an economist for the Brookings Institution and a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Air Force, Anna Blaire Harley established a documented lineage that contributed to both academic and military fields.
