On January 5, 1924, a well-dressed young woman, accompanied by
a male companion, walked into a Brooklyn grocery, pulled a “baby
automatic” from the pocket of her fur coat, emptied the cash
register, and escaped into the night. Dubbed “the Bobbed Haired
Bandit” by the press, the petite thief continued her escapades in
the months that followed, pulling off increasingly spectacular
robberies, writing taunting notes to police officials, and eluding
the biggest manhunt in New York City history. When laundress Celia
Cooney was finally caught in Florida and brought back to New York,
media attention grew to a fever pitch. Crowds gathered at the
courts and jails where she appeared, the public clamored to know
her story, and newspapers and magazines nationwide obliged by
publishing sensational front-page articles.
