                     TRIBUTE TO LAUREN A. HOROWITZ

                                 ______


                           HON. ANNA G. ESHOO

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, February 15, 1995
  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to an outstanding 
young woman and a prized constituent, Lauren Horowitz.
  Lauren is a student at La Entrada School and recently played the lead 
role of Diana in the production of ``Anne of Green Gables.''
  This outstanding performance was put on by the California Theatre 
Center in Sunnyvale--the only child-centered theater program in the 
region--and exemplifies the very best of what the arts have to offer 
our young people. Lauren was inspired to pursue her interest in acting 
by her teachers. Several little girls attending the play were inspired, 
in turn, by Lauren's ability to bring the role of Diana to life and 
asked for her autograph--the highest form of appreciation for any 
artist. By showing succeeding generations of young Americans a 
productive way to use their talents, energy, and self-discipline, the 
arts have proven to be a valuable asset for our children, our 
community, California, and our country.
  Mr. Speaker, Lauren Horowitz is a young woman with a bright future 
ahead of her in whatever profession she may choose. I ask my colleagues 
to join me in congratulating her for her winning performance and 
showing all of us the true value of the arts.
