James Dean Remembered : I wore my official James Dean racing shirt from the Phoenix Project on ABC7 News with Frank Mathie in December of 2014, in memory of James Dean. September 30th always reminds me of him. #jamesdean

JAMES DEAN REMEMBERED

James Dean passed away September, 30th 1955 at 5:45pm at the intersection of Routes 466 and 41 at the young age of 24. My son Josh and I took a trip to Fairmount, Indiana last September to visit with his cousin Marky Winslow on the farm where James grew up and to take a walk in James' footsteps.
