Cora L. V. Tappan

(English: Cora L. V. Tappan)

Also: • Tappan-Richmond •

American trance-medium, later known as Tappan-Richmond, who began lecturing as a teenager under her maiden name Scott and became a prominent Spiritualist speaker across the United States; from 1873 she lectured to enthusiastic audiences in England as well. Zirkoff notes that her trance-delivered lectures and poetry were considered unusually eloquent and coherent compared to other trance-mediums of the period. (BCW 1:528). De Zirkoff identifies her later name as Tappan-Richmond and refers readers to Collected Writings, volume I, page 528. (BCW 3:532).
