Abstract:

This article details the life of Alice Green Hoffman, an activist in the women’s suffrage movement, in the Outer Banks. Hoffman was born in New York City but moved to Carteret County in 1918. She sought to protect wildlife on her property ‘Isle of Pines’ in Bogue Banks and, following her death, the land was left to Eleanor Roosevelt, daughter-in-law of President Teddy Roosevelt. In 1956, Roosevelt’s heirs developed the land into Pine Knoll Shores.
