<p>For the sixth and final episode of Back To Reading Credits, Wes Jackson spoke with legendary artist Lady Pink about getting an education from painting trains, making a name for herself as a woman writer in the 70s and 80s, and straddling the worlds of street art and fine art today. Lady Pink started writing graffiti in 1979 and soon became well known as the only female capable of competing with the boys in the graffiti subculture. Pink painted subway trains from the years 1979-1985 and in 1982 had a starring role in the motion picture "Wild Style". Today, Lady Pink continues to create new paintings on canvas that express her unique personal vision. She also shares her 40 years of experience with teens by holding mural workshops and actively lecturing to college students throughout the world. • Back to Reading Credits is hosted by Wes Jackson and produced by Khyriel Palmer, Emily Boghossian, Chris Torres, Gabrielle Davenport, and Antoine Hardy, with help from Elyse Rodriguez Aleman, Charlie Hoxie, and Kuye Youngblood.</p><p><strong>• BIOS & LINKS: </strong></p><p><a href="https://www.ladypinknyc.com/">Lady Pink</a> was born in Ecuador, raised in NYC, and currently resides in the countryside north of the city.
