I wouldn't try to be too obvious (such as "PLEASE READ") as this will increase the likelihood of getting overlooked. Just title it something obvious and simple such as "Introductory Email from Erica X".
What I would do is to call up and get her voice (presumably, they wouldn't put you directly through to the person) and leave a VERY brief message with your full name and phone number saying that you are sending an introductory email and you wanted to make sure that it got through to her. Say your name and phone number at the beginning and the end of the voice mail. The total length of the voice mail should be less than 10 seconds.
