Footnotes du Jour

I'm fascinated by uber-footnotes in history; either in pictures (ie. who's the woman in the picture they always show kneeling over the body at Kent State?) or otherwise (Raymond Jones walking into the NEMS shop and asking Brian Epstein for the "My Bonnie" single, which made Epstein curious about The Beatles) Who are these people? Has anyone ever interviewed them? That should be a whole book, interviews with these footnote people.

I've heard this story about Bruce for about 30 years now but it's crazy that in 2024 we I don't know, who was this kid? Who was the mother, is she still alive?

HERE'S A LINK TO ALL THE FOOTNOTES POSTS SO FAR
