Being born in a leap year, Miss Potter had to wait four years for each birthday to roll around. Her next birthday would not be until February 29, 1940. On non leap years, she celebrated her birthday on March 1st. Miss Potter is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Potter of 1008 No. Steele St. and at the time this photograph was taken she hoped to become a tap dancer. (T. Times, 2/13/1936, p. 1)
