I believe there are ways to search for a particular image of somebody, but that's beyond my technical knowledge.

I don't have the New Yorker in front of me so I searched on Google for "Natalie Portman Tiffany New Yorker." That brought up several photos of her, and I don't know which one was in the ad. But what you can do is right-click on the photo, then click "Search this image with Google lens," which brought up a few, including:

So, that is the 250th issue. I'm curious what you thought about the Lepore article on the Declaration and Immerwahr article on the wider war of which the American Revolution was only a part.

I opened that issue to look at the TOC; that's how I thought I recognized Natalie Portman. I was going to put May 4 in the recycling bag, but I glanced it its TOC to make sure I'd read everything that needed to be read. I noticed I hadn't crossed off (therefore hadn't read) the Elizabeth Kolbert article. The TOC makes it look depressing, but it also makes it look like a "duty" article that should be read. I always read her articles anyway.

But speaking of Jill Lepore, some weeks ago she did "The Last Minute" of the TV show "Sixty Minutes." In a nutshell her position is that the Supreme Court is essentially rewriting the U.S. Constitution. She concluded by asking, "Do we want that?" She didn't offer any suggestions as to how we might prevent it.
