We have plenty of Ted De Grazia stories, although these were relayed to us, so they would be second hand accounts. De Grazia's friend "Two Guns" (aka Jerry), is alive and well and living in midtown, we look in on him a couple times a week....and he calls us daily. He is not computer friendly, nor is he very social, so I would have to relay these stories to the group for him.
If you get a chance, get a hold of De Grazia's short movie called "The End of The Rainbow". Not the best production in the world, but it is very entertaining. Jerry is in this movie, and is also featured in the book: "The World of De Grazia". I'll see if Jerry is interested in relaying some of these stories to me via recorded stories, which I could post on the Internet as podcasts.
I also have some scanned pictures of Jerry and De Grazia that I can post in a few days. I have TONS of homework to do.

I probably read wrong but thought I saw that someone had posted some pics of the castles---I can't find them, are they there?
We arrived here in 1982, we were told stories of Tucson from our Aunt Katie. Oh how I love this site because she taught me "Tucson" so I hear her voice in everyones stories. Thank you all.
By the by, she spent lots of times with DeGracia going back to war time--I've forgotten far more than she ever talked----does anyone have any personal stories about him. She always related him as sort of "rough and tumble" sort of man---I would really enjoy hearing about him. Thanx Carolyn
