"Oh, Selina, you are so unaware. Dressed in the skins of slaughtered animals. Polluting our air..."
―Norma[src]

Norma was an American woman living in the area of New York City in the 1990s. She and Tom were attending the Annual Celebrity Tennis Shoe Auction & Dinner for the Metropolitan Foundation for Educational Quality at the City Hotel & Conference Center, when they sat at a table occupied by an elderly Indiana Jones. When an acquaintance Selina arrived at their table, Norma commented coolly on Selina's wearing of animal furs, and her smoking, and her choice of veal for dinner. After Selina accused her of being self-righteous, Norma assured her that she cared about the planet and nature. This topic started Jones on a story about a time when shooting an animal was an act of conservation. After Jones recounted his tale about being meeting Theodore Roosevelt on safari in British East Africa, Jones departed, much to the delight of Norma, who thought the old man was pathetic.

Behind the scenes[]

Frances Taylor played Norma in the bookends of one episode of The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles: "British East Africa, September 1909".

While the role of Norma is credited in Passion for Life, Norma does not actually appear in the film, as the bookend scenes of the TV episode were cut when the film was assembled.

Norma appears as a brunette without a jacket in the "British East Africa, September 1909" comic.
