RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 02-22-2019
Lord Charnwood?
RE: Who is this person? - Eva Elisabeth - 02-22-2019
I cannot see/open the image. This is all I get:
RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 02-22-2019
Eva, very early this morning I had the same problem. I tried several times, and finally on about the 5th attempt, the image opened. I was worried it might not open again, so I copied it to my hard drive. Just now I uploaded it to my server and will post for anyone having problems seeing the photo.

RE: Who is this person? - Rob Wick - 02-22-2019
That's odd, because it shows up clearly on my screen. Thanks for doing that, Roger.
That's a good guess, but it isn't Lord Charnwood.
Clue #1. He was NOT an academic, but he had their respect.

Dale Carnegie?
RE: Who is this person? - Rob Wick - 02-22-2019
Sorry Roger, but it's not him either.

RE: Who is this person? - RJNorton - 02-22-2019
Emil Ludwig?
RE: Who is this person? - Gene C - 02-22-2019
Is this person an author of a book on Lincoln?
RE: Who is this person? - Rob Wick - 02-22-2019
Roger, it's not Ludwig.
Gene, he has written on Lincoln-related topics, but not a biography.

RE: Who is this person? - L Verge - 02-22-2019
Is/was he considered an author or a journalist?
RE: Who is this person? - Anita - 02-22-2019
Was he in the political arena?
RE: Who is this person? - Rob Wick - 02-22-2019
Laurie, he certainly was an author.
Anita, no to the political arena.
Clue #2. Carl Sandburg once called him a "fuddy duddy."

F. Lauriston Bullard
RE: Who is this person? - Rob Wick - 02-22-2019
It is Bullard. My next two clues were going to be 1)He wrote about a family that had a connection to the television show "The Incredible Hulk." (Bill Bixby and the Bixby letter), and 2)he was a book thief (per the attached article). I was going to stay away from his winning the Pulitzer Prize for editorial commentary as I knew that would give it away.

What person who planned a mass murder was later elected governor of a state?
