Chicago 7 Drawings
Marilyn Church, who has maintained parallel careers as a fine artist and a courtroom artist known for her coverage of high-profile trials, was called upon by the producers of “The Trial of the Chicago 7,” the just-released Netflix production, to create court drawings for the film.
