For the final leg of Our Place's Admired: Portraits of Influential Women fundraising campaign, Dr. Henry graciously volunteered to sit for a portrait.

Elfrida Schragen's portraits feature dozens of admired women who have achieved notoriety in a variety of areas, including business, politics, the arts and indigenous leadership.
