  waustad: Actually if you look at the Austrian press she is a rather jolly looking lady who is about as far from glamorous as she could get.

  waustad: Interestingly enough though, she has been involved with theater. From her Wiki page:

Helene Mira (* 18. November 1954 in Wien) ist eine österreichische Schauspielerin und Schachmeisterin.

She is in many pictures with Eva Moser when the latter looked like a teenager, so she may have been a mentor. These often involved showing chess to children if I recall.

  waustad: While poking around an Austrian chess site I ran into a page devoted to youth chess and she's in about a third of the pictures. This is nothing new, since she was also in a lot of pictures of kids playing chess along with a teenage Eva Moser, who is now 30.
