Curatorial assistant Amy Baskette speaks about the portrait of Lady Bird Johnson by Boris Artzybasheff.
Each week, a staff member of the National Portrait Gallery or a special guest speaker brings visitors face-to-face with a portrait by offering an insight into one person. Visitors meet the presenter in the F Street lobby and then walk to the appropriate gallery. The March Face-to-Face talks feature "Ladies, First at the Portrait Gallery."
