John F. Kennedy at North Carolina Caucus, 1956 Democratic National Convention
If John F. Kennedy were alive today, he would be celebrating his 100th birthday. Hugh Morton, who was less than four years younger than JFK, photographed him on several occasions. The above photograph is Morton’s earliest.
During the nearly ten years that A View to Hugh has been in existence, John Kennedy has been featured, represented, or mentioned in more that thirty blog posts, including a dozen images from his 1961 University Day speech in Kenan Memorial Stadium at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. To mark this day, I encourage you to search the blog for Kennedy’s name and read an entry or two . . . or click on the link above to access nearly sixty images available of Kennedy in the online collection.
