The stern-looking MALE DA couldn’t figure out why I was having so much difficulty. However, they gave me a 10-day reprieve to prove that I was who I claimed I was.

Times or some similar publication. I am hopeful that the fact that I have always used both maiden and married name keeps me from getting into the same pickle as you. The only time I've had a problem is when I've tried to fly from one European country to another and they questioned the fact that my passport is in my maiden name (because I never changed it with SSA) and my driver's license has both names hyphenated (as does my voting registration). Oh, and when I got my job with LAUSD and they forced me to go by the name on my Social Security card, so while I'm known at the school as "Mrs. Mills" all official correspondence (including payroll) is addressed to "Ms. Schwartz." I hate bureaucracy. You really should work these posts into an article for the L.A. Times or some similar publication.
