This article must adhere to the policy on biographies of living persons.

It is requested that a picture or pictures of this person be included in this article to improve its quality. Note: Wikipedia's non-free content use policy almost never permits the use of non-free images (such as promotional photos, press photos, screenshots, book covers and similar) to merely show what a living person looks like. Efforts should be made to take a free licensed photo during a public appearance, or obtaining a free content release of an existing photo instead.

[edit] Biography text from Day Leclaire's Website

I have reverted to the previous version of this article because the most recent version had copyrighted text from Ms. Leclaire's webpage. If it is decided that the copyrighted text is more appropriate here, this process should be followed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Confirmation_of_permission (it will also make sure that Ms. Leclaire's email address is not available for everyone to see: spam=bad).

I have doubts, though, on whether the other text actually belongs on Wikipedia. I found the biography at dayleclaire.com to be a very interesting read, but Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and in my opinion the other biography was not structured as an encyclopedic entry -- it was more of a nice letter to a friend.

If you disagree and think we should put the copyrighted version back (after the appropriate permission process has been followed), please discuss here.
