Last night we also headed to Kalorama for the Woodrow Wilson House 28th annual Garden Party. We snapped Wilson House Board chair Linna Barnes, Edith Bowling Wilson Birthplace Foundation's Farron Smith, her husband, Bowling Wilson Hotel's Bill Smith, patron Victoria Brademan, Advisory Council member Nancy Bliss, and Cary Fuller, the great-nephew of Edith Wilson, who grew up in the house.
