William Campbell
Actor William Campbell, an earlier graduate visited often. He would sweep through the halls and visit the dressing rooms before shows, wearing what seemed to be his signature belted trench coat with collar turned up to frame his handsome face. We followed his career and his marriage to his first wife Judith Exner (of President Kennedy fame) with interest. Sadly, we lost him in April of 2011.

"What a thrill it was a few minutes ago when I came across two photographs of my Mother, Jerry Anne Keane, on your website. My mother died in 1955 when I was an infant and I have very few pictures of her, so these two really made my day!...I have an 18 year old daughter who looks very much like her grandmother and it would be fantastic for both of us to have a few more hints of what she was like.....I gather that my mother returned to Charlottesville, VA around 1950 after studying at Feagin, married my father, Charles in 1951 and had to children, my sister Anne in 1952 and me in 1953. Unfortunately, she died of polio in 1955, the very month when the Salk vaccine went on the market.....Thanks so much for your words about how you perceived my mother. Her father said the same things about her when I met him when he was 93. The faint picture the two of you have painted contrasts radically with the only other one passed on to me. DCK
