The painting is from Harry Anderson (see credits on p229 of the picture on p224 in the John Taylor Manual). As far as I can tell from a biography of him [1], he was not a member of the church, but did do contract work for them: "In the mid-Sixties, he expanded his religious horizons to include the Mormon Church, for whom he created a mural for the 1964 New York World's Fair. It was done in oil paints which he'd abandoned early is his career due to allergies to turpentine. New thinner products allowed him to explore the medium again. He produced a dozen more oil paintings for the Mormons, many of which have been reproduced in one of their publications entitled the Family Home Evening." This was probably one of the paints he was contracted to make (if you look in the credits of the John Taylor manual you'll see he did a lot of other famous paintings). Because this painting is so well known in the church, I would think the probablilty of a member having it would be much higher than the average citizen of the United States (I've seen this in many LDS households but never in any of the other non-LDS households I've been in). This doesn't prove that she's a member, but when you take into count that she has that picture and what appears to be holding a quad, I'll assume she's a member. :-) -Evan [1] http://www.bpib.com/illustrat/anderson.htm -- /********************************************************************\ Evan McNabb: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://evan.mcnabbs.org System Administrator, CS Department, BYU GnuPG Fingerprint: 53B5 EDCA 5543 A27A E0E1 2B2F 6776 8F9C 6A35 6EA5 \********************************************************************/
