Which one do you think it is? (:

anonymous · Answer

a d.o.

whitemonsterbunny17 · Answer

Nope, because the direct object is Ms. Brady. 
"chairwoman" is complementing "Ms. Brady".

anonymous · Answer

oh so then its a I.O. cuz it modifies Ms Brady

whitemonsterbunny17 · Answer

Hint: "complementing"

anonymous · Answer

yeah objective compliment thats actually what describes or renames a d.o.!

whitemonsterbunny17 · Answer

Yeah, but it's not renaming her... It's giving her a title or complementing her. Making it an object compliment.
