John Wilkes Booth and Philadelphia's Arch Street Theatre

[GARY POPOLO]

The article is very intersting. And yes I am sure that Booth was an excellent actor. It is a shame that he (JWB) will always be known for his final act which was to kill the President. People should not be characterized or labeled for one bad decision they have made in their lives but that is how our society has always been. As sad as that is remember JWB said that he wanted to be remembered in history.I think it is a case of be careful what you wish for. You just may get it!
