Giant Of Small-Town Life

Mary Immen Hall poses at a gallery in Arlington, Vt., holding a reproduction of a Norman Rockwell painting that she posed for as a young girl.

She said she was paid the "going rate of $5" a session to model for this painting, which was used by Hallmark for a Christmas card, and several others.
