Are you referring to the background over her shoulder? I could probably balance that out. Notice that the gradient change starts dramatically just to the left of her head. That's from the original photo. Are you wanting me to even out the gradient change or just fix the area over her shoulder?

Hi Clay, when you say the gradient changes starts dramatically on the original, that is not necessary true for photo as it was shot originally. What you are seeing for an original is a photo that has had water damage and that is the cause of what looks like a spotlight over the girl to the left. This photo was taken by a studio and no way would they have one person stand out. You've done a great job so far and much better as B/W.
