fictional Identity: Lynn HERSHMAN
Lynn HERSHMAN constructed an alternate personality as an ongoing project. "ROBERTA BREITMORE was, for 9 years a private performance of a simulated person. In an era or alternatives, she became an objectified alternative personality. Roberta's first live action was to place an ad in a local newspaper advertising for a roommate. People who answered the ad became participants in her adventure . As she became part of their reality, they became part of her fiction."
