It was this newspaperclip, which led me to find the poster. I suppose they met in New York, where the family lived at that time. Unfortunately we do not have much further information, as Poon died very early in 1964, when my husband was just a little boy of 4 years.
Poon Tom, who was the model for the Chinese soldier in United China Relief's
1943 poster, was inducted into the army in early November. Mrs. Tom and their little daughter, Patricia, who posed as
the Chinese mother and child in the poster, are proud that Mr. Tom is going to become a real soldier to fight for their adopted country.
三月份是#妇女历史月#（Women’s History Month），笔者在此介绍一位才华横溢的美国女画家，
她在20世纪40年代初找到了自己的使命：用艺术来放大在抗日救国时期中国人民的声音，
描绘他们在战争蹂躏中的挣扎和坚韧。她的绘画作品生动地捕捉了中国军人的勇气、
平民的苦难和中国文化的美丽，向美国人民及时传达了侵略者铁蹄下的中国争取自由和支持的强有力信息。
