On February 17, 2009, The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza marks its 20th year with the opening of its newest exhibit A Photographer’s Story: Bob Jackson and the Kennedy Assassination, which features the work of the Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist. Using photos, artifacts, and film footage, A Photographer’s Story highlights Jackson’s personal and professional perspective of three chaotic days in November of 1963 – from President Kennedy’s arrival at Dallas Love Field to accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald’s murder. The exhibit also tells the larger story of Jackson’s decade spanning career, which includes his coverage of Jack Ruby’s Dallas murder trial and other images portraying a city in transition during the 1960s.

Offers: Audio guides for the permanent exhibit are available in seven languages, including a youth version in English.

This is truly a "must-see" for anyone! It is historic and factual and the time is ticking,... for all the eyewitness/ survivors to this historic event which happened here in Dallas so many years ago. Go see it, especially before November when it gets really crowded.

Note, this event is at the museum through the end of July, 2010. An aforementioned event said it ends July 2009 -- but it'll actually be there for a whole 'nother year.
