Could it be this guy?  Ken A. Johnson

 

I'm a retired carpenter, was born in Highland Park, Michigan. I began violin lesson's  at age 3 and played until I was about 9 yrs old, my mom couldn't afford the lesson's any longer, they were very expensive back then, one hour per week @ $ 0.75. pr. hr. I played in the school orchestra for 3 yrs.  I then gave up the violin and bought a new guitar out of  the catalog I received from selling flower and vegetable seeds, door to door.  OHH,,, I should mention, I'm 69 yrs old, things were different back then. My new guitar cost $7.00, It had GUT strings and was painted a beautifull bright green with a cowboy and prairie tumble weeds on the face. It was GREAT. I have played guitar ever since. When I was in High School, I taught myself how to play the Hammond Organ we had, later at age 50, I was given a piano that my Aunt gave me. Over the past 60 yrs, I have dabbled with the violin from time to time. I have two of them, one was my Stepfathers, Grandfathers, that instrument is around 120 yrs old, I also have a cheap fiddle I purchased online a few yrs. ago. I recently had the old fiddle worked on by a Luthier in Birmingham, MI., new bridge, strings, sound post and the fingerboard reshaped. I have played or been involved with music my whole life, but never long enough to get really proficient at anything, I do things just long enough to say I can do it. I happened to stumble on, FM's website while looking for a Luthier on Google.  First time I've seen  anything that has more than just one post on Youtube. Wonderfull site Pierre, thanks.

I know you would have gotten it, Pierre, after all  you are the one who cropped the picture out of the full photo.

See,,, I'm not even famous and it didn't take someone long to guess it, but I included a few hint's.

You are either a super violin geek connoisseur of almost every violinist who have ever existed, or a very good google researcher.

Here is a hint for everyone else. This guy goes down in history as a hero and very brave man.
