Thai American creators portray the inspirational and barrier-breaking life of Senator Tammy Duckworth in a picture-book tribute to an extraordinary woman. Given Tammy Duckworth's personal heroism as an Army veteran, her stunning recovery from injuries sustained in the line of duty, and her subsequent career as an influential US senator, it's easy to see why Joe Biden earmarked her as a possible running mate during his Democratic presidential campaign.
