Marjorie is identified in another photograph as Marjorie Andrews. It is almost certain that the young boy shown here is Dean Andrews, Marjorie’s brother and later a local attorney (he served for a few years as an Assistant District Attorney in Jefferson Parish). In 1965 he organized the International Jazz Festival of New Orleans, five years before the birth of the present-day New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Dean Andrews made an even bigger name for himself a couple of years later when he managed to get businessman Clay Shaw embroiled in Jim Garrison’s investigation of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Andrews died in April 1981.
