Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: January 5, 1947 (The Chronicle of Higher Education; The Fine Art Archive Db) or in 1949 (The International Who's Who of Women 2006) or January 5, 1945 (Library of Congress Authorities).

The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
