Women of the War Index

    Her early years are a mystery with few verifiable details. Her real name was Harriet Wood. In the early 1850s she embraced the life of a theatrical performer as a member of Thomas Placide's Varieties. It was then that she took the name Pauline Cushman. She was sent south of Nashville to visit General Bragg's headquarters.
