Maya Lin was a 19 year old art student at Yale University when she won a blind competition for the Vietnam Memorial in Washington DC. Her submission was a simple pastel drawing and a written statement. The award caused a firestorm of criticism. Her persistence and dignity eventually won the day and showed those tough and hardened veterans a thing or two about courage. Today she is a successful architect and artist and the "Wall" has become a national icon.
