    I see the the artist did busts of famous as well as of everyday people. Cannot find who the depicted person is so probably of the second case? Is that a female?
    Thanks

    What is the date? 1965? 1985? Looks a bit like Maya Angelou but, if this was done 50 years ago, it is too old of a sitter to be Maya. 30 years ago might work but still seems a bit too old. You would want to compare photos.

    I don't see Rosa Parks in this.
