Victoria Pike identifies mystery woman in photo with CJE elect

Comments re photo 57440 Michael Lee Stephens wins race for County Judge Executive

Victoria Pike writes:
That would be Miss Cynthia Rowe with her back to the camera hugging Mike. - Victoria Pike
Thanks, Victoria Pike. Though we had planned, 70 years from now, to run world wide contests, to identify the mystery woman - who would have had a much interest as the Alfred Eisenstaedt picture of the sailor kissing the woman on V-J Day in Times Square. (See ) - but I personally will forget about that and enhance the information with the photo, now.- EW
