Living History with Vivian Castleberry

The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza presented an interview with Vivian Castleberry as a Living History education program for Haggard Middle School (Texas), Pulaski Academy (Arkansas) and West Ouachita High School (Louisiana). Castleberry was the Women's News editor at The Dallas Times Herald in 1963. She spoke with Museum Associate Curator Stephen Fagin about her experience the day of the assassination. Castleberry was waiting at the Trade Mart to cover Jackie Kennedy's visit to the city when she learned that shots were fired at President Kennedy's motorcade. This presentation took place at the Museum on April 18, 2008.
