Interesting Facts

• The youngest and latest of Mira’s five lovers the previous year.
• She and Mira started their affair a couple weeks before Christmas. They met at a show she had - he bought one of her paintings and then contacted her a week later to ask her to meet him for a drink. She knew he could help her, and nudged several of his rich friends and associates to come to the gallery and he talked up her work. She sold a couple more pieces, and they were using each other - he got to have sex with her and in exchange he helped her art career.
• Friends with Lydia Su, and her alibi for the time Edward and Dennis Mira were attacked. It was Downing’s day off and they met for lunch, then got their nails done, did some window shopping, had some AutoChef pizza at Downing’s place, and hung out until around nine or 9:30.
• Studied art at NYU.
• Was in therapy with Felicia Fairburn for a six week stretch in 2059.
• She was in an insomnia study that Su was in, although not at the same time.
• She had a meltdown during a support group session, and CeCe Anson contacted Blake to help her with her legal issues. She didn’t attend Yale, but she was dating a man from Yale and sometimes attended parties or events with him; on one of her visits, she found herself wandering the campus before dawn with no memory of what had happened.
