Actor Gary Cooper and his wife had one child Maria Cooper who is now a famous painter... , Certainly this photo would have been one of her most PRIZED rememberences of her father. She married classical pianist Byron Janis...they both are alive and well in NYC call and ask them am certain they would be able to give anyone interested in the photo a detailed background of its history and origin.

Hemingway called Gary Cooper "Coop" they often hunted and fished together in Sun valley, as a member of the "Hemingway Society" I consider the following extremely touching.......
Cooper converted to Catholicism in 1958, reconciling with his wife and daughter. As he told Hemingway, “You know, that decision I made was the right one.” But in 1960, Cooper fell ill with prostate cancer, which quickly spread to his colon, lungs, and bones. Yet he managed to keep his illness from the press — at least until Jimmy Stewart had to accept an honorary Academy Award in his stead in April 1961. “We’re very proud of you, Coop,” Stewart said, “all of us.” And then broke down. Hemingway, watching the broadcast, had to turn away. Hemingway would later call Cooper from the Mayo Clinic, where he himself was receiving treatment for all matter of ailments. The chatted the way older men who hate the phone do, a mix of awkwardness and guffaws. They made plans to go to Africa. But as the phone conversation came to a close, Cooper became serious. “Papa,” he said, “I bet I beat you to the barn.” A month later, Cooper was dead. _________________ jim@stinsonsports.com |
