Come Inside the Archives with us this month to check out one of our most recent donations. These images are digitized copies of some of the slides donated by Betty Pickens Cabber, the daughter of Homer and Edna Pickens. Can you help us identify any of the people (or animals) in these photos?  Homer Pickens took this photo of the deer crate with kids gathered around sometime in the mid-1960s.

Los Alamos has many treasured community members, one of whom is Bun Ryan (Dec. 23, 1923-Sept. 29, 2014) who was named a Living Treasure of Los Alamos in 1999. Bun Ryan is famous in Los Alamos for his fast pitches as part of the Pierotti’s Clowns, but his contributions to Los Alamos history don’t end there.  Bun Ryan, Verdie Raper, and Lou Pierotti (left to right) sign softballs for the opening of the Los Alamos Historical Museum exhibit “Pierotti’s Clowns” in August 1998.
