She did a bunch of work with Lalo Schifrin for the Dirty Harry movies.

Eta: I always pictured the bass player in the soundtracks of the Dirty Harry films to be some funky looking dude.

There's actually a fairly long discussion of her Chordal Pattern System on the Jazzguitar.be website. I looked it over a bit. Se seems to be a well respected educator. I used different systems when learning to play, but hers looks good and a bunch of folks use it. As I was looking over her system I saw someone posted a clip of her playing guitar with George Benson. She's a serious player.
