Bunny Greenhouse inspires artist
Artist Marcia Annenberg was so inspired by the story of Army whistleblower Bunny Greenhouse that she has included a portrait of Greenhouse in a recent painting. "You are my hero," Annenberg says in a letter to Greenhouse. "Your compelling story is woven into my painting, 'Portrait of Two Women.'" Bunny Greenhouse was the top contracting official for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers who objected to the long-term no-bid contracts for Halliburton subsidiary KBR. Now she is calling on the U.S. Senate to fix the poison pills in the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act (WPEA) and pass a strong protection for federal employee whistleblowers.
"Portrait of Two Women" will be part of Annenberg's "News/Not News" exhibition at Boricua College, 3755 Broadway (at 156th Street), New York City, from April 28 to June 18, 2010.

"Portrait of Two Women" is very interesting and beautiful.
And to honor and mention a fighter for the right causes like
Mrs. Bunnytine Greenhouse, who I had the pleasure of meeting
when a speaker at an LMU event in CA, is right on target!
Many all across Americaa should pay attention to all Mrs. Greenhouse has done and is still doing to stand up for her rights, be heard, not forgotten and "get justice with her plight to amend and make better Whistleblower Acts and all the best or better protection they are to provide for those of us in need of such. Bravo, bravo to you and Mrs. Greenhouse. God speed.
