“This is she” vs. “This is her”

"Ok, genius. Good luck." ??
My mom was a writer for the New Yorker magazine. We used to sit around the table and edit her stories over and over before submitting to the editor. I was about 10 yrs old. So, no I don't need an editor and I don't need your snarky comment either. I came here for a little help with her/she because mom is gone now and I don't have her on speed-dial anymore.

Even if you could answer my question, I'm not interested.
