Spencer Tracy and John F. Kennedy?

I think he looks like George Skakel, but since he was dead at the time, maybe one of his brothers?

Ok. Mission accomplished. :slight_smile:

It’s hard to make out much from that photo, but could it be Jackie’s step-father, Hugh D. Auchincloss?

He’s on the stairs rehearsing for the grassy knoll.

No, the guy on the stairs is definitely older than Cox, has a heavier build, and looks very little like him.

No, I don’t think it’s him, either: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2015/06/18/21/29C18C8A00000578-3130135-image-a-47_1434661160006.jpg

I found a better quality image, but I still don’t know who he is.

Hmm, no, it’s not Spencer Tracy–he looked much more aged by late 1960 (and his head was less rectangular, more square). I think the unknown gentleman is an aide of some kind–the image on Getty identifies literally everyone else in the pic but him.

For the record, going from left to right: Bill Walton (journalist, painter & friend of Pres/Mrs Kennedy), Pierre Salinger, Ethel Kennedy, RFK, JFK, RFK’s secretary Angie Novello, and William F Haddad (Special Assistant to RFK at the time–and I believe of this group, the only one who’s still living as of January 25, 2018, so hypothetically you could try to get him to answer! :smiley: ).

(The man in question is only referred to as “Unidentified man on stairs.” FWIW, he does look like a Kennedy, but if he were, he’d surely have been named by photographer Jacques Lowe.)

I noticed that a copy’s in the NY Historical Society museum. If I remember correctly, there’s actually a Doper who knows a lot about history and might have some info… stuyguy, maybe?
