Hi Walt, Are you talking about this guy? To me, he has always come across as a different bigger man. Thank you for everything, Sincerely yours, Michael

This is from Jim Murray in Robin's famous gallery.


 Are you talking about this guy?


Yes Tht's our "Taxi Driver" ( dressed in khaki ) ....There are better photos of him on pages 496 & 498  of POTP.  Mr "Taxi Driver" was where ever the action was taking place in Dealy Plaza that afternoon.  He certainly heard whatever the police were saying and was keeping tabs on the story unfolding.

I could be wrong, but, I believe the other John Martin, ie, the one who filmed in the Plaza, was sometimes referred to as Jack Martin, hence my "Jack Martin" Video title.

John Wylie "Johnny" Martin, Jr., 1905 - 1993 Dallas Post Office Safety Officer,
