I don' know enough about street art or graffiti to attempt to improve this article, but there are enough mentions of her on the web, including museum websites, to indicate that she is regarded as an important person in the genre:


 * http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5526190
 * http://www.nyfa.org/level4.asp?id=13&fid=2&sid=22&tid=35
 * http://www.streetartmuseum.com/essay/index.html ("Sandra Fabara, aka Lady Pink, is the most famous woman in a man’s game." There is more on her there.)
 * http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/graffiti/ ("An exhibition of twenty large-scale graffiti paintings from such influential artists as Michael Tracy ("Tracy 168"), Melvin Samuels, Jr. ("NOC 167"), Sandra Fabara ("Lady Pink"), Chris Ellis ("Daze"), and John Matos ("Crash"), Graffiti explores how a genre that began as a form of subversive public communication has become legitimate—moving away from the street and into private collections and galleries.")
 * http://www.sil.si.edu/digitalcollections/art-design/artandartistfiles/vf_details.cfm?id=11402 (The Smithsonian keeps an artist file on her.)
 * http://www.bunchecenter.ucla.edu/diaspora/conferences/1998_powermoves_participants.htm

It should at least be taken to AFD for more input. Pharamond 09:23, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * She is absolutely famous, and important for many reasons :
 * as one of the most famous girls in graffiti
 * as an actress (she has the main girl part in a feature film, "Wild Style")
 * as a graffiti artist who worked with a respected contemporary artist (Jenny Holzer)
 * as a painter who has shown her work worldwide - I discovered it in Milano "dome" in 1985, she was along Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat.
 * she appeared in quite a lot of books, too
 * ... so for me, Lady Pink is of course a subject for wikipedia. Jean-no 22:00, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

NPOV dispute
I see someone placed the tag on the article in Dec '13 but no discussion was started. I am assume this is in regards to the sentence: "Young, approachable, quick-witted, and one of the only female graffiti writers, Lady Pink became among the most photographed and interviewed graffiti artist of her time."[according to whom?]. I would support removing this sentence or rewriting it to be more encyclopedic. Jooojay (talk) 09:54, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
 * No responses on the talk page so I removed the sentence that appeared neutral in point of view and cleaned up the article, then removed the tag today. Jooojay (talk) 07:22, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
