Tribute to Bob O'Connor
On September 1, 2006 Pittsburgh lost it's mayor, Bobby O'Connor.
Though he had only been in office 6 months, he'd spent a lifetime
winning the heart of the city one person at a time. He'd been a
council member since 91. I remember him standing at the corner of
Second Avenue the day before the 91 election with one of his campaign
posters waving at the rush hour commuters. The I remember him the
day AFTER the elections standing in the same spot with a big sign that
said "THANK YOU". That image stayed with me.
When there was a sniper scare in downtown Pittsburgh he put on a
flack jacket and went to rescue his wife who was in the "red
zone". That image stayed with me.
On September 2 I saw this sign on a fence in the Greenfield
neighborhood of Pittsburgh. Today I went back to photograph
it. Since the sign was put up people spontaneously added flowers
and a big shamrock. While I was photographing it a 20-something
man from the pizza shop across the street came out with zip-ties to
repair a corner that had come loose. I asked him if he made the
tribute. He said that the guys over at Soldiers and Sailors did.
Another young man walked past. He was wearing a "Bob O'Connor"
bracelet. He had walked down because he heard about the
sign.
O'Connor left the city a better place.

"Let us be lovers we'll marry our fortunes together."
"I've got some real estate here in my bag."
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies
And we walked off to look for America.
"Kathy," I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
"Michigan seems like a dream to me now
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
I've come to look for America."
Laughing on the bus;
Playing games with the faces;
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy;
I said "Be careful his bowtie is really a camera."
"Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat."
"We smoked the last one an hour ago."
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field.
"Kathy, I'm lost," I said, though I knew she was sleeping.
"I'm empty and aching and I don't know why."
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike:
They've all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come to look for America
(simon and garfunkel)
