By Thomas Southerland
Season 09
Episode 905
In 1951, a little girl became mesmerized by a Christmas display window in downtown Louisville. A photo of her has remained iconic for over seventy years. To this day, the identity of this wide-eyed child remains unconfirmed, except among the dozens of women who claim to be her. I'M THE GIRL investigates the power of a single image, what it means to be seen, and the magic of the Holiday season.
