When I was transcribing one of the Langston Hughes poems here I wondered who this Aimme McPherson lady was and looked her up:

As Sarah Comstock wrote in Harper's in 1926:

"You may believe Aimee Semple McPherson to be a messenger direct from God Almighty to save His erring world. Or you may believe her to be the most unblushing fraud in the public eye today. Some do one, some the other; and there is every shade of opinion between. But the one fact that stands out is that her influence is incredible, that it carries as that of few evangelists has ever carried, that she is to-day one of the most amazing phenomena of power in this feverish, power-insane United States."
