California State Senator Hilda Solis has become the first woman to receive a John Fitzgerald Kennedy Profile in Courage Award from the JFK Library and Museum. Virginia photographer Sally Mann has earned a national reputation for intimate portraits of her three children. In May a lecture and slide show by Mann drew an enthusiastic crowd to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. As the debate heats up over whether the United States should deploy a "Star Wars Lite" missile defense system, Peace Action, the successor to SANE/Freeze, is launching six fifty-foot inflatable Trident missiles in a counterstrike--part of its campaign to put nuclear disarmament on the political agenda.
