JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) - Gov. Sean Parnell’s office is looking for help identifying a boy in a photo found in the attic of the governor’s mansion.
The black and white photo (https://on.fb.me/1haUuq8 ) shows the boy with John F. Kennedy. Parnell spokeswoman Sharon Leighow says the governor’s office thinks the photo may have been taken in 1958 or 1960, when Kennedy, then a U.S. senator, visited Alaska.
She said there were no markings on the back of the photo, which was framed, and that the Alaska State Museum has been unable to identify the boy or venue.
Leighow said the office knows the boy is not a son of the late-Mike Stepovich, who was one of Alaska’s last territorial governors, or state Sen. Dennis Egan, whose father, William, was the first governor at statehood.
