Portrait-style image of Stacy Davis Gates, sitting in the third row of a classroom, facing away from the front of the classroom. At the far wall is a blank whiteboard, out of focus. She is wearing a red t-shirt with the words "Free People Read Freely" in white lettering, and she is smiling broadly.
