CBS filmed me against my permission in April 1967. I was an 18 year old suburbanite from Orange County California who had gone to Haight Ashbury in San Francisco to revel in my generation's Bohemia and wear flowers in my hair ( or paint them on my face ). That 2 seconds of footage has been shown world wide for almost 50 years. Complaining about it for years, though unsure of what to do about it, I found that there is a California statute that says that I have legal rights. Preferring to settle out of court, I have been attempting to establish contact with them for almost 2 years ( this is written June 2016 ).At some point I realized I had enough that has been written to write it up as a book. So I thought, why not? Tell the story, not only of what happened but how it affected me as an individual and all I have done ( tweets, letters, phone calling, etc ) to try and contact them, so far to no avail.  This is my story and it is the story of one little person trying to contact a major corporation in the hope that they would somehow work with her to right the wrong they did to her and maybe even make lemonade out of the big fat lemon they had handed her.
