Laura Mae Corrigan

Laura Mae Corrigan (2 January 1879 – 22 January 1948) was a wealthy American socialite.

Ulf Aschan wrote, likely citing Elspeth Huxley's earlier (1985) description of Carrigan, in reference to her impact on the British East Africa community in Babati, "Famous for her wealth-which was derived from her husband's steel mills-and her lavish entertainment in a bid to ensnare the rich and titled, Laura also looked after her poorer, albeit titled, friends to uphold standards at all costs."
