Description

Fine Art Photography and digital artwork by Donna Kennedy-

John Wayne was born Marion Mitchell Morrison on May 26, 1907, in Winterset, Iowa. He received his nickname "Duke" while still a child, because of a love for his dog of that name. Wayne was an American actor who became a popular icon through his starring roles in films made during Hollywood's Golden Age, especially in Western and war movies.
John Wayne appeared in over 75 films between 1939 and 1976 when The Shootist, his last film (and appropriately enough a Western), was released.
Wayne was inducted into the Hall of Great Western Performers of the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in 1974.

This is printed on his grave marker…
"Tomorrow is the most important thing in life.
Comes into us at midnight very clean.
It’s perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands.
It hopes we’ve learn’t something from yesterday."
