Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes; Photograph also used in article dated March 27, 1965.
Photograph article dated June 21, 1961 partially reads, "A North Hollywood composer today is the proud possessor of a letter from the White House thanking him for his "gracious gesture" in sending a copy of one of his songs to Mrs. Kennedy. Mike Chiule, a native of Greece, some weeks ago had thought the First Lady might like to have a copy of his song, "Grecian Isles," while vacationing in his homeland. And so he sent her a copy - five copies, in fact - to the United States Embassy in Athens."
