Lee Thorin in cape and zap gun at the Costume Ball at Discon, the 1963 World Science Fiction Convention in Washington, D.C.

She's wearing Leslie Gerber's name badge for some reason. Was she crashing the Costume Ball? She was known to New York fandom, and is noted for publishing fanzine Efanescent in 1960 which is archived at Marquette University's Tolkien collection.
