The Southern Christian Leadership Conference, hosted at the newly opened Four Ambassadors Sheraton in the Brickell neighborhood, featured Martin Luther King Jr. as the keynote speaker.
Casey: As I have mentioned before in this space my father, Art Apple was a photographer. One of his assignments was photographing groups of men who attended the conference so they could have a record and some wanted copies for their personal use. I assisted him. We photographed them in the pool area, but they were all dressed in suits. I have no memory of of Dr. King being part of any of the photographs. I do have an interesting story that I will tell you some time when we meet in person.

Thanks, Larry. I would love to see the photographs and to hear any stories you have. Thanks!
