ME 'N TINY TIM

Yep! That's me on the right with singing sensation Tiny Tim. I was working for Trans World Airlines at the San Francisco Airport as a public relations representative when this photo was taken by Steve Duncan in 1969. Tiny Tim had just arrived from Sydney, Australia where he was on tour. He was on his way back to New York to be with his beloved "Miss Vicky". He and I are carrying bags filled with perfume! Lots of it. He reeked of perfume. Apparently he didn't like to bathe very often so he used the scents to cover up his B.O. He was very congenial and talkative considering the long flight across the Pacific. I was very surprised to see how tall he was. I guessed around 6' 5" and over 250 lbs! Tiny Tim wasn't tiny.
