There is no evidence that Joe O'Donnell shot this photograph and it is highly unlikely that he did. O'Donnell for at least 20 years claimed credit for many photographs he did not shoot -- from portraits of Truman to Jackie Kennedy, JFK and many others. He claimed to have photographed Lyndon Johnson's swearing in on Air Force 1 although the sole photographer present was Capt. Cecil Stoughton, an Army photographer assigned full time to the JFK White House. O'Donnell claimed credit for photographs shot by famous photographers and more anonymous ones, but in the case of the latter their names were recorded. O'Donnell has been throughly debunked, including evidence that he falsely claimed credit for photographs from Japan. This is one of them and it is beyond plausibility that O'Donnell made it. His book on Japan 1945 is a historical falsehood and it is impossible to determine when or where some of the photographs were made. And there is ample evidence that O;Donnell made false statements. 69.120.49.117 22:37, 6 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

There is plenty of evidence that O'Donnell took this snapshot, please read over the citations provided before making such claims. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 21:14, 16 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
The article as currently written DOES appear to be from someone other than O'Donnell. Per the article, the lead (and only) image is from a color film reel, and whatever photograph you both are referring to should instead be in black-and-white. Yet, the description under the image attributes it to O'Donnell. Unless the photograph was colorized, it appears the photo's description is incorrect or outdated. 68.60.202.174 (talk) 04:25, 8 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Image that might be disturbing

The Image in the Infobox person template might be disturbing for sensitive people, I think that it should be moved to the section «Recovery» and should be preceded by a warning such as: «The following images may be disturbing to sensitive people.»

In the Infobox person template insert a different image less disturbing. 79.46.224.44 (talk) 13:09, 1 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
