A Contest!

Care to venture a guess who this may be?  A hint:  He is a well known literary figure. 
  


 

The winner will get the accolades of millions of people around the globe.  Maybe!

  1. You know I have face recognition software. . . AND I know about the McKenzie Triplets, so I will have to decline.

    Good photo though.

  2. To the brave Anonymous: SOOOOO CLOSE! But nope.

    Here are a few hints:

    The subject of the work was born in 1896 on Cathedral Hill (nope, you need to guess the city and state!). He spent the first 15 years of his life here and then moved, with his family, to Buffalo, NY. He returned to this area five years later and went to school here. He died in california, at age 44, over 65 years ago.

    Anyone? Anyone? chirp...chirp....

  3. Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald.

    But then I've been to Cathedral Hill in Pigseye, er, St. Paul when I lived nearby.

    I couldn't save my life to pick him, Lewis, or T.S. Eliot out of a line-up, though.

  4. We have a winner! Well done, Mr. North! And, I did chuckle at the Pigseye comment. Only a native would know that!

  5. If you are ever in the Cathedral Hill area, check out W.A. Frost - phenomenal fine dining.

    The brother of a close friend is the chef - very talented.

  6. Thank you, Sir. I rarely get there to this area. But, I will keep that in mind. It is possible I will have a business event in the area this next week. If so, I just may swing by and check it out.

    Thank you for taking the time to respond.
