Assassination and Commemoration

The shots that killed President John F. Kennedy in November 1963 were fired from the sixth floor of a nondescript warehouse at the edge of Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas. That floor in the Texas School Book Depository became a museum exhibit in 1989 and was designated part of a National Historic Landmark District in 1993. This book recounts the slow and painful process by which a city and a nation came to terms with its collective memory of the assassination and its aftermath. Stephen Fagin begins Assassination and Commemoration by retracing the events that culminated in Lee Harvey Oswald’s shots at the presidential motorcade. He vividly describes the volatile political climate of midcent...

"Patrick Fagin, progenitor of the Fagin family treated in this history was born in Ireland and came to the American colony of New Jersey some time around 1740. ... tradition says that he came from northern Ireland -- the "Orange Country" -- ... Patrick Fagin was originally in the colony of Irish settlers of Salem Co., New Jersey, and was apparently a schoolmaster in Elsin Borough, Salem Co. about 1759. Before 1766 he had moved, ... to New Hanover Township, Burlingon Co. ... there Patrick's children were born. ... [there is] no record of his marriage. ... Patrick Fagin and his family left New Jersey before 1790, ... [moving] to western Pennsylvania, and settled in Fayette Co., Menallen Township, on the Monogohela River near Brownsville."--P. 6.

Talkin' with Your Mouth Full

  • Categories: Art

Steve Fagin is an artist whose videos incorporate, challenge, and cross over into the realm of literary and cultural studies. Talkin' with Your Mouth Full includes not only scripts of Fagin's works but critical responses to--and meditations on--a variety of his influential videos by a distinguished, if intriguingly disparate, group of artists and scholars. Combining elements of criticism with various modes of artistic expression, these responses take the form of reviews, letters, interviews, and in one case an imaginary TV programming schedule. Interspersed with--and sometimes literally interrupting--the video scripts, these contributions interact with one another on multiple levels and comp...

Behind the Scenes

On November 22, 1963, the author of Behind the Scenes was a young Dallas Times Herald reporter who sprinted from his newspaper desk to Dealey Plaza minutes after shots were fired at President John F. Kennedy. Thus began Darwin Payne’s close involvement in covering one shocking event after another on this history-making weekend. Eyewitnesses he found at Dealey Plaza included Abraham Zapruder, who insisted from the first moments that the president could not have survived the serious wounds he had seen so clearly through his camera viewfinder. Payne interviewed detectives outside the School Book Depository that early afternoon as they brought down evidence of the shooter’s location, as well...
