The former Catholic Archbishop's Residence in Norwood on a block bounded by Montgomery, Drex, Quatman and Moeller. It was built in 1911. The structure is now part of the Holy Trinity Spirit Center.

My parents lived in Norwood (part of Cincinnati), when I was born -- in a small apartment. I had my FIRST KISS in Norwood when I was two -- and we CERTAINLY got first the Salk Polio SHOTS -- and later Sabin Oral Vaccine -- AS SOON AS THEY WERE AVAILABLE!!!:

I'm the short one standing, and Mickey's Polio Braces are outside the frame. Then we moved UP to this house on Ebenezer Road when I was 2.5 years old -- and Roy Rogers and Dale Evans often visited Roy's first cousin's home (with red brick), and dressed up and entertained the neighborhood kids:

In the 1950s, I knew THREE other Polio victims, including a Professor of Architecture at University of Louisville, who lived two doors from us in our first Kentucky home 1957 - 1959, and two other classmates at St. Martha's Grade School, when we moved to our second home, 1959 - 1963 -- right before President Kennedy was assassinated, when we moved to West Chester, PA.

At St. Martha's, one good friend of mine with Polio Braces had all his medical costs covered by his Uncle, film star Victor Mature!!!

Samson and Delilah (1949), starring Heddy Lamar and Victor Mature.

Heddy Lamar was a MATH GENIUS, and for the US Government invented "Channel-Hopping Technology", which allowed the Allies to better track German communications -- and LATER is the technology that made CELL PHONES even POSSIBLE!!!

Here's to Heddy Lamar -- and a LOT of other UNDER-APPRECIATED WOMEN!!!

I ALSO had -- at St. Martha's -- Rosemary Clooney's sister, and Eva Marie Saint's sister-in-law as SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS, so NO WONDER I ended up working for Tennessee Williams, no???

Tennessee Williams and I at the Reagan White House, December, 1981. http://laterdaysoftennesseewilliams.blogspot.com/

And my mother's first cousin lived in the house in Brookville, Indiana -- which we often visited -- on the site where Lew Wallace who WROTE Ben Hur had been born!!!

When we moved to Pennsylvania, we lived on Dunsinane Drive in Birnam Place development -- and Birnam Wood development was SEPARATED from us by a decrepit railroad line, that was eventually REMOVED. Thus Birnum Wood CAME to DUNSINANE!!!

This posting ties A LOT OF THE THREADS of my life together -- RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE of TODAY'S TRUMP POLITICS: http://theweathercontinues.blogspot.com/2017/06/today-democratic-senators-unleashed.html

As my Readers can see -- I'm TIRED of heavy-duty Politics, confronting Rex Tillerson at his ranch with this EXPECTATION from my FAVE Political Cartoonist, Mike Luckovich of the Atlanta Journal/Constitution:
