Who is The Babushka Lady?
The Babushka Lady refers to an unidentified woman who was present during the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Eyewitnesses reported that they had seen her with a camera, photographing the event. She was spotted in several film accounts of the assassination. As other surrounding witnesses take cover during the shooting, the Babushka Lady can be spotted standing still and calm with her camera to her face. While she was sighted in much footage and photographs on the day, none capture a clear image of her face. She earned the nickname due to the headscarf she wore which was similar to elderly Russian women. Babushka means grandmother in Russian.
She was never identified thus the footage she captured of the assassination has never been discovered.
"Drunk at the matinee" is a collection of candid poetry about stupid shit that we all experience from day to day.
