    John Audubon - Fencer

    From the Smithsonian article on John Audubon, who knew he was one of us.

    John Audubon, A Rare Bird, Smithsonian Magazine

    Besides other accomplishments he was musical, a good fencer, danced well, and had some acquaintance with legerdemain tricks, worked in hair, and could plait willow baskets

    An interesting fellow! I had no idea he was part-Haitian, or that he worked in hair. Do you suppose he preferred Paul Mitchell or Aveda?
