Julian Read recounted his experiences in the days after the assassination as a press aide and consultant to Governor Connally in his memoir JFK's Final Hours in Texas, which is available in the Museum's Reading Room. - Krishna Shenoy, Librarian/Archivist
Interviewing Julian Read at Parkland Memorial Hospital is WFAA-TV broadcaster Ed Hogan (to the viewer's right, facing news camera). Hogan was dispatched to Parkland shortly after the assassination, and was assigned the thankless task of interviewing crying and confused bystanders outside the Emergency entrance about their reactions to President Kennedy's death. Hogan, however, earned an additional $100 that day since many of his broadcasts were picked up by the ABC network in New York. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
