Angelica and Desiree at Twalla's

     When I took the photo above of Desiree Staley and my late sister Angelica Staley, at Twalla Staley's home some years ago (2012 -12-22), I instinctively knew I had seen the composition and Desiree's expression, in conjunction with the holiday season, somewhere before. Today I remembered where:  from Robert Franks' 'The Americans' specifically, the Christmas waitress pictured at the 'Ranch Market, Hollywood. (1955 - 1956)
