Returning the favor, our son recently sent us a link to a Quentin Tarantino featurette he found online that covered a signing the writer/director did in 1993 at Video Archives, the video store in Manhattan Beach, CA where he worked before breaking into Hollywood, for the VHS release of Reservoir Dogs.
My son thought he spotted my wife at the 7:41 mark (the video link below is cued to start at 7:40). That is indeed her head popping up way in the back lol—we were at that signing and have the signed poster for the movie framed and hanging in our house. A photo of the signed poster is in the comments, as well as a screenshot of when my wife appears.
I have to give my son credit for spotting her—it's only a partial headshot for a second or so and she's waaaay in the background. But I guess there's no missing her curly blond hair! (As much as I looked, I didn't see myself, though I was there—someone with dark hair and glasses is in front of her to the side, but I don't think it's me.)
Below is a screenshot where you can see my wife's face, with blond hair, peeking over someone's shoulder way in the back in the middle left of the photo.
And below is a photo of the Reservoir Dogs movie poster that Tarantino (and actors Tim Roth and Chris Penn) signed that day.
At my wife's request, Tarantino wrote, “Mr. Pink lives!” But then Roth wrote, “No, he doesn’t!” (Mr. Pink was Steve Buscemi’s character—he runs off, so you never know what really happens to him, though you do hear gunshots off screen lol.)
