| Ann Rawlin has never met a stranger, and she hasn't a moment to waste as she walks a bustling Boston street making pictures to share with her students back home. In the span of 25 steps, the affable teacher asks a man if he's from Poland because of the T-shirt he's wearing, encourages a Boston policeman for keeping the city calm during the Democratic National Convention and instructs a friend to stand in front of buildings for pictures. She comes upon a street drug bust, looks hard for a moment -- "What's this about?" -- makes her a picture and she's off. Strangers ask Rawlin, a delegate from New York, about the 42 pins on her hat. "Collected them all this week, someone gave me the hat, it's putting a ring around my head, it's so heavy, you know." Her rapid response ends when she spots more gold on the table nearby. "Oh, I've got to grab a button," she says, stretching through arms and around backs for the black and green one that reads, "I love Pro Choice Girls." | |||
