Smithville Texas USA, July 2011: Pro-life activist Norma McCorvey poses in a small city park on a sweltering summer afternoon. McCorvey, who was "Jane Roe" in the 1973 Supreme Court case of Roe vs. Wade that struck down many state laws that restricted abortion, has led an eventful and fascinating life on both sides of the issue. ©Bob Daemmrich
