Loraine Immen was born in 1840 in Mount Clemens, Michigan. At the age of 14, she became a teacher. In 1880 she won her senior class project of the National School of Elocution and Oratory in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Then, and throughout her life, she donated the proceeds to various projects in the Grand Rapids area, including busts of notable figures and several drinking fountains. The Grand Rapids History Center holds a large selection of the Elaine Pratt Immen collection.
