competition. Renowned filmmaker Frieda Lee Mock chronicles Lin's career
- from her battle over the Vietnam Veterans Memorial to her role
designing numerous subsequent memorials. Ms. Lin is currently a member
of the 13-member competition jury for the World Trade Center site
memorial, a group charged with selecting the final design. Charlotte

artists in LMCC's studio program from 1997-2001. Organized by artists
Christopher K. Ho and Stephan Apicella-Hitchcock with LMCC.
