_Laurie_ Posted October 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I pretty much gave away too many clues...should I post another pic for others to take a guess at one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I didn't see your last clue. I was already thinking "Marilyn" after you said she died in 1962. By all means post another Pic. But here's one from me first (hope you don't mind). This Pic was taken in 1962. NOT a musician. But she became one of the world's most famous women....
