Rose Flanders Bascom, date unknown
Rose Flanders Bascom, born in Contoocook, New Hampshire, in 1880, was the first American woman lion tamer who performed in the early 1900s. In 1898 she married Alfred Bascom who was of French Canadian ancestry but born in the United States. About 1905, Rose joined the circus life and became a lion tamer. It is reported that she was clawed by a lion resulting in an infection that led to her untimely death around the year of 1915. She left behind her husband and their young daughter Agnes.[1]
