[Possible Bioshock 2 spoilers in this thread, just a heads up]
So I have been wondering about this poster:
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51qoyIxZPyL._SL500_AA300_.jpg ('http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51qoyIxZPyL._SL500_AA300_.jpg')
It comes with the Bioshock 2 Special Edition. And I can't, for the life of me, figure out who the lady on the right is supposed to be. She doesn't really look like Tenenbaum or lamb. And I doubt Jasmine Jolene would be considered one of the best and brightest. Thoughts? Answers? Random Guesses? All are appreciated.
If this has been asked before or is some kind of inside thing EVERYONE but me knows, my apologies for wasting forums space.

A hidden message does say 'Where is Dr. Lamb?' on the woman's chest, so I'm guessing it is her after all?

Who's the one on the left??
They are both probably rich people (industrialists) of some sort -- maybe not society people who wouldnt want to leave the 'ant society' they were already royalty in.
Ryan tried to get other rich industrialist to come to rapture and bring their fortunes with them.
I never heard of lamb as 'dressing up' anywhere and if it was an attempt to attract intelligensia that wouldnt be the way to dress them

I always thought the woman was Lamb and the guy on the left is Augustus Sinclair. Keep in mind this poster would obviously have been made before the events of Bioshock 1 and Lamb as seen in Bioshock 2 is ten years after the events of Bioshock 1 so both Lamb and Sinclair not looking exactly like they appear on the poster is believable.

I don't think so. As you can see there is also a circle above Ryan's head probably symbolizing the place where who wrote this(most likely Lamb's followers) thinks Lamb's head should be.
And I don't think it is Lamb in general because first of all Lamb doesn't seem like the person to dress up like that. Also the woman on the poster looks like she has a much rounder face as well as eyes set more apart.

And Lamb always wore glasses and didnt strike me as the jowly type. She also was 'hired help' for that problem that developed in Rapture. The woman was probably another one of Ryans rich people who he convinced to move to Rapture. (not sure who that poster would be shown to as the 'sell job' seems a little odd to convince people.)

Yeah its probably not Lamb, going back and seeing her audio diary pic - I found this on the bioshock wiki - http://bioshock.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Ava_Tate ('http://bioshock.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Ava_Tate')
Who knows though, haven't found any other info on a quick search.

The male on the left is obviously Augustus Sinclair, you can tell from his appearance alone and he founded Sinclair Solutions, so they consider him "bright". The male in the center is Andrew Ryan, no explanation needed here. The female on the right is Tenenbaum, she almost single-handedly invented the Little Sisters witch provided a solution to the ADAM shortage for a time, so she is also "bright". I can assure you the female is not Lamb, Lamb has very sharp and straight facial features, while Tenenbaum has a more rounded, soft face.

I don't think she really looks totally like Tenenbaum, def a strong possibility but all the gallery pics/audio diary pics of Tenenbaum doesn't seal it as definitive when it really should.

i think it might actually be a young tennenbaum....

I think Tenenbaum has a much longer face shape. Also Tenenbaum is not the kind of person to dress up like that.

I don't think it's Lamb. Aside from the fact that it doesn't look like her, she's not wearing glasses and the hair is the wrong style and color - yes, yes I know both of these can be changed - but character models from video games are rarely changed - so why would they make her look different in a promo poster?

Here is Tenenbaums Bioshock 1 audio diary image: http://ts4.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=4613856270945103&id=a5796701efca17275dd64884f85cc409 ('http://ts4.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=4613856270945103&id=a5796701efca17275dd64884f85cc409') In my opinion this is as close as it gets to the poster.

Could you expand instead of just posting 2 links.
