Regarding the Picture from 1951 Downey Class

From Allison Watts, 20 July 2007

To James Murphy,

Where did you find the 1951 Downey picture of Miss Cannon's class? I would like to find a similar picture of my mother - Miss Mary Ann Brown - who taught there from 1949-1951.  Do you remember her and is it possible that other pictures of the students or teachers exist?

Thanks,
Allison Watts
