Yes, I am the lone woman in the gallery. My name is now Mary Louise Chapman and I live in Berkeley, California. Liz and I were members of a crew of 4 on a Red Cross clubmobile in England in late 1943 and early 1944. I well remember sitting for LIz. My folks received the portrait soon after it was drawn but the original was lost. I'm so happy to receive this copy all these years later. What a grand legacy Liz has left her family and the families of so many GIs. I think it's great that WQED has taken up this delightful story. Mary Lou Chapman, Berkeley, CA - November 13, 2013
