music that sells |
Bonnie Parker stood 4'11" in her
stocking feet, weighed 90 pounds, had Shirley Temple-colored strawberry-blond
ringlets, was freckle-faced and, according to those who knew her, was very
pretty. Born October 1, 1910, in Rowena, Texas, her parents were hard working
laborers plunked down in life among the lower caste. A good student in high
school, she excelled in creative writing and displayed a dramatic flair for the
arts. Her favorite color was red; when she could afford it, she wore fashionable
clothes dominating that color. She loved hats of all kinds, and she loved her
Clyde, reckless entrepreneur that he was. And she was ahead of her time. Like
the writers of today, she knew the value of buck. Had she survived, she would no
doubt be all over the best seller lists and cashing in on the antics of her boy
friend. As we know too well, there is nothing like some disgraceful family episode to land a writer a seven figure advance and launch a book
signing tour. |
Some day they will go down together; And they will bury them side by side.
To a few it means grief, To the law it's relief,
But it's death to Bonnie and Clyde. - from The Ballad of Bonnie & Clyde, by Bonnie Parker
