Subject: [Leica] Migrant Mother

This weekend I was back in Belgium and saw the exhibition of the FSA
photographs at the photography museum in Charleroi. This is a great body
of work. Afterwards, my wife asked me if I knew the further fate of the
migrant mother in Dorothea Lange's celebrated portrait. Is anything
known about her whereabouts in the years following the picture?
