Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "Behind [her portrait], almost hidden, is the schematic for US Patent number 2,292,387, a torpedo and the cover of a Stars and Stripes military newspaper telling the story of her invention. After researching Ms. Lamarr, I am sure that she was prouder of the background."
