Some Cohenites like to protect their privacy, so a direct answer would not be appropriate. But your best approach is to check the Gallery of B'Losers on the left hand side of the screen to see if she has chosen to identify herself publicly.

I only saw it yesterday, and copied it on my computer. Great poster (thanks, Lizzy, for the idea way back!), and I am glad to see my own picture in it too.

I add my thanks to those already here. What a thrill.

I have on my wall one other photo-compilation poster including a photo of me; a poster promoting a collection of stories of Jewish Mothers and Daughters for a filmed archive a friend of mine made. This LC poster will go up alongside it. I'm proud to belong to these two groups; Talkative Jewish Women, and People who Love Leonard Cohen.

Being in Leonardland says so much about us all in a simple way; the complexities and contradictions of a person don't need to be spelled out, you just say, 'I love Leonard Cohen', and so much becomes clear... it's a nice club to be in, with its light and shade, and unspoken poetic communion.

I hope Leonard will have a meaningful time in Israel, with a lot more love than hate surrounding his visit.

Here's to heroes and those who love and learn from them

Thank you to all who created the poster and participated on it. Good job!
I'm happy you allow me to be a little part of this greeting, little part of celebration of Leonard's Birthday.
Hope you were able pass on the poster to Leonard in Barcelona??

Sorry that this 'thank you' to all concerned for producing this lovely poster is so late (life intervened as it tends to!) My daughter and I are thrilled as it's a very special memento of us waiting so excitedly to see Leonard at the Liverpool concert in July.
We are truly grateful to you all,
Glen

I thank. In the end somebody answered. I asked a long time ago for your names. It is a pity that everyone are so secret.

Jeremek,

This link might help you identify some of the people on the mosaic who were willing to post the photos they were submitting.
