The Execution of Ruth Snyder
Ruth Brown Snyder was the first ever woman executed at Sing Sing and this is the first ever execution caught on film. It was snapped at the moment electricity was running through her body, with the aid of a miniature plate camera strapped to the ankle of Tom Howard, a Chicago Tribune photographer working in cooperation with the Tribune-owned New York Daily News.
