It was a normal weekday, when the phone rang and a pleasant voice said, "American Profile Magazine has made you into an American
Hero!" After a bit more conversation, the writer (Marti Anton) explained that this national publication that goes to small towns, selected
me since I am a wandering silhouette artist, who does like to work in small cities and towns (and large ones too) to impact lives. That,
is not that unusual, as silhouette artists do like to travel, by car, trailer, plane, or once, horse and buggy. What, she said was different,
is that I donate most of my proceeds to The Holly Rose Ribbon Foundation to help cancer survivors. Please see the total story on AOL, and this
video got over 200,000 hits in a week before the magazine realized that is was picked up as a Sunday feature story on AOL! I even got a phone call, or
e-mail from a high school friend who saw it in LA, and another one from a friend in Reston, Va. Nothing came of the story, but the fact that a lovely
photo was taken of my own sister, Holly Harwood Skolkin, who was a cancer survivor. She is not here, but please click on the story on AOL and the video,
and see how wonderful she is, and what we do. Thanks so much!

Once the magazine found out, it was to go viral, the halted the escalating story.
