Among her well-known and much-<\h>loved local achievements are the Market Street Railway mural (a rainbow-<\h>hued vision of San Francisco from distant past to hoped-<\h>for future) and the Duboce Bikeway mural (the "wiggle" one with the big snake behind the Market Street Safeway in San Francisco). For more on Caron, go to www.monacaron.com.
