Michael DeBakey working in the family garden with his father and brother
Date:
[ca. 1920s]
Description:
Michael is at center of photo. Several of the DeBakey oral history interviews mention this--Don Schanche's 1972 series, in Box 2 of the NLM DeBakey Papers, has the most detail. In the transcript of Tape 1, p. 11, DeBakey says, "I loved to work in the garden. I won any number of prizes ...in the community...I won first prize repeatedly!"; Transcript of Tape 2, pp. 10-13, covers this in more detail.
