Don't know which one she belongs to, but I read somewhere that a movie depicting her "struggles" will be out in 2005.

And for those who wondered how she looked like, here she is (from the Smoking Gun):



Edited to add: Columbia College of Chicago lists her as a 1996 graduate. Don't know if that was for undergrad or grad work.
