Image 12 from Negative Strip 16: Parkland of a man in a hat leaning on his car outside Parkland Hospital
Original 35mm black and white negative taken by unidentified Dallas Times Herald staff photographer. This image shows Hurchel Jacks, a Department of Public Safety officer waiting next to his car to hear news of President Kennedy's condition outside of Parkland Hospital on November 22, 1963. Mr. Jacks was the driver of Vice President Lyndon Baines Johnson's car in the motorcade. The negative is on Kodak Tri-X Pan Film. The image is labeled #12 on section 2 of negative strip 16.The old TMS record for the images on this negative strip did not identify a photographer. Based on research conducted by collections intern Mark Davies in June and July 2012, curatorial and collections staff concluded that while the specific photographer cannot be identified, we do know it was one of two men: There were two DTH photographers at Parkland Hospital that day who stayed for the press conference - Eamon Kennedy and John Mazziotta. One of them took these photos. Bob Jackson, who was at Parkland earlier, was not present at the press conference, which appears in the last frames on this negative strip.
