A Brooklyn woman is positively furious that a photo of her was used in a newspaper advertisement portraying her as being infected with HIV.
Avril Nolan, 25, a Greenpoint resident who does not have HIV, alleged through her lawyer Wednesday that Getty Images, a photo agency, sold a photograph of her to the New York State Division of Human Rights without her approval.
The state agency then took out an ad in the April 3 edition of amNew York that featured the photo of Nolan standing in front of a graffiti-covered storefront, along with the messages: "I am positive (+)" and "I have rights."
