1. The photographers name was Riboud I believe.

That might help in the search. I haven't found it yet, but I've found some others from the same day.

Such as. . .



I'm not positive this is the same guy, but it's the closest I can find so far.

3. saw that one. it isn't it

its the one with the woman (i THINK she is wearing glasses) putting the daisy IN the guardsman's rifle barrel. if i remember right, SHE is on the left in the shot (but i could be wrong)

7. I believe I know which picture you mean -

and I remember her on the left of the shot also. I don't have a clue how to find it, though.

2. I got nothing direct for ya Matcom

but you might try looking in on Kent State. I believe that is where the most widely publicized pic of the flower in gun barrel incident took place.

6. I was getting two incidents confused, that's the right one :)

It was October 16, 1965 according to everything I've found.

I was wrong on the first one (which was in 1967) :)

8. I think that's the one you were looking for too

Although I have an image of a girl doing it. I wonder if we are thinking of the same photo or if we are both confused..lol.

5. You mean this one?

(It's a guy, not a girl. But I think it's the one you mean. Sorry for the hotspot, I just shot a quick pic with the digital camera.)

I have it in a Life magazine picture book, and it runs across the gutter, so if I scan it for you, it won't be perfect. But I can do that for you if you want, and if you can wait until tomorrow.

9. the photographer is Marc Riboud and the girl's name is

Jan Rose Kasmir. I'm still looking for the photo, but that might help.

10. thanks JJ

i THINK that one is in color. might work better. nothing comes up under her name though

13. I'm getting the same photo as ET awful.

I think my brain is merging the image of that photograph with the image of the campaign ad with the little girl in the field when the nuclear bomb explodes. Drat. I'll still look though.

18. The Conklin photo is of a young man doing it. That's the one

in the other poster's sig.

This is the photo by Riboud. It was taken in black and white.
