Living History with Rose Marie Simmons

The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza presented an interview with Rose Marie Simmons, who was a teenager visiting Dallas Love Field on November 22, 1963. She watched Air Force One arrive and shook President Kennedy's hand that morning and less than a month later, she received a letter from Kennedy's secretary, Evelyn Lincoln. The moderator was Associate Curator Stephen Fagin.

This presentation was arranged for school groups and took place on March 30, 2009.
