Help Us Write History responses to article from UNLV Special Collections, posted in the Las Vegas Review Journal on August 28, 1983 on behalf of the Dorothy Dorothy Collection. As stated, 2 callers attempted to identify the man. The callers' names and numbers are listed in order of call. The first caller believed it to be her son, a model with some acting work. The second caller believed it to be her ex-husband, and was upset as to why another woman had a photograph of him. However, the dates were off in her assumption. It is likely to be the first person, James (Rusty) Russell Meyers.
