True. She went by “Sparkles, aka Lucky.” She didn’t do anything professionally, just went to hospitals with some friends. She had some pretty funny routines and I still have her nose somewhere. When she passed and we were waiting for the funeral director, I was cracking up my brother and sister by threatening to put on her clown shoes before they took her. Don’t judge, she would have been laughing, too.
“I’ll thank you not to talk about Princeton that way.”
I thought there was going to be a second photo. Like, “My mother graduating from being camp clown….to being a US Senator !”
Reminds me of The Tampa Academy of Dramatic Tricks
So she was basically joy incarnate…
How delightful! This is a great photo.
I wanted to go to Clown College. Instead I earned a plain ol Masters.
My mother went in the late 70’s. “Birdie”.
Did she paint an egg?
Would.
“You’re hung up on some clown from the 80’s!”
You’re hung up on some clown from the 60s!

In a class of clowns, who is the class clown?
