The Rebel who had no Cause

As the sad news reaches us of the death of Hollywood legend Tony Curtis, it is also the 55th anniversary of the untimely death of James Byron Dean. It was the day an icon was born, an icon that certainly played a huge role in popular culture during my formative years. Last year we stopped at the site of the crash in Cholame, California. The memorial is about 800yds from what is today a busy intersection.
