The Girl in the Photo (Kindle Single)

The Girl in the Photo (Kindle Single)

What happens when a stranger steps out of a photograph? More U.S. troops died in Vietnam in May 1968 than during any other month of the war. Among the casualties was the authorâ€™s brother. Not yet born, the author would come to know his brother only through photos. The one with â€œthe girlâ€ always stood out. No one remembered the girlâ€™s name, or knew where to find her. For more than forty years, she remained a mystery. Then the past came calling. â€œThe Girl in the Photoâ€ is the story of a manâ€™s search for the brother he never knewâ€”the truth about how his brother had lived, and how he had diedâ€”and the lessons he learned along the way: about love, loss, and coming to terms with the past.

Gaspar GonzÃ¡lez has written for, among others, The Miami Herald, Village Voice Media, and Grantland. His film credits include the PBS documentary Muhammad Ali: Made in Miami. He earned his Ph.D. in American Studies from Yale University.
