The mass of brunette hair above the young man with the crew cut haircut in the right-center portion of this photograph belongs to W.W. Samuell High School student Rose Marie Simmons. Her brief encounter with President Kennedy and its unique aftermath was detailed in a curatorial comment for record 1989.100.0004.0021, the Dallas Times Herald photograph taken immediately before this one. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
