Photo of Richard Head Welles, Welles father

[ljtorres]

Dear friends,

For a research in Spain about "Lady from Shanghai" we need any existent picture of Welles father. I've tried to look for it in the Internet (Google, etc.), but nothing came out.

Thanks in advance!

check Leaming; there's a picture in one of the books. Perhaps it's in Bogdanovich. Check the list of books in our book section on this site.

Thanks Toni. But not in Leamings's. I'll try in Bodganovich's.
Best,

Charles Higham's biography of Welles got very heavily into his family, so that might be another source to check. I'm pretty sure one of the books has a photo of R Welles though.

I can confirm that there is a group picture in Higham's Orson Welles, The Rise and Fall of an American Genius, that contains father Richard, mother Beatrice, Maurice Bernstein, and a 7 year old Orson.

Thanks so much!! I'm going to look for it quickly.
Best Regards,
