Dorothy Anderson

aka: Dorothy Anderson

Girlfriend, major character

It was hard to determine how much of Shep's story telling was fact or fiction. He often told stories involving dates with Dorothy Anderson. One such show involved going to the races and seeing the famous Whirlawy. Dorothy was real and they actually dated for a period of time writing each other while Shep was in the Army and so was her brother Johnny. This show describes the whole family: 10/16/64 - Selling Seeds in 2nd Grade, Drunken Painter

"Can you imagine 4,000 years passing, and you're not even a memory?
Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
