Jeff, my friend who works at the
Ninth Circuit District Court near where I live and whom I met during a
trip to Turkey in 11.04.2004, just wrote to tell me he had done
a new Google search for added photos from magazines taken over the
years, many not published. He keyed in 1940 - Illinois - Faces and
scrolled through them and saw a photo that looked like me when I was on
the cover of Life Magazine. The Life Magazine photographer was there doing the shoot for the magazine at our one room school for several weeks and I was in most of the photos in the magazine plus being on the cover! They took hundreds of photos and maybe published 12 or so in the issue so there were many never shown to the public or to my family! They probably are in the archives of some storage area. Jeff was wondering if the photo was of me and if I had ever seen it! No I told him, I had never seen it before! I was so surprised at the clarity of the photo. I actually like it better than the photo of myself on the cover! All I can say is thanks to you Jeff! Again, I cannot believe how clear the photo is and I may do some more searches to see if they place any other photos of me and the Pecatonica One Room School House on the internet! At least I did have my fifteen minutes of fame, if only when I was six and in a one room school house in Illinois! |

My sister also found this on the internet. A web site that had Life Magazines on sale with a full blown detail of each monthly magazine and the articles in it. I was pleasantly surprised to see my name in both the October and November issue! These are on sale and in 2008, the price for the one I am on the cover is.... $72.00! | |||
