RE: What's Your Passion & Why
I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say it's a "passionate" interest, but I'm completely fascinated by the more or less everyday people who found themselves in the middle of the assassination/manhunt. I've mentioned this before. The Mary Jane Anderson's, Oswell Swan's, and Lucinda Holloway's are my favorite people of the assassination story. And how about James Tanner or Charles Leale, Peanut John or the brothers who came downstairs and took the picture of the death room after everyone had cleared out. These people were just going about their lives and found themselves with a front row seat to one of the greatest tragedies in American history. I'm utterly fascinated by this, for some reason.
