Author Marie Winn on Charles Francis Kennedy: "A tall handsome, engaging man, the hero of a book and a film about Pale Male, a gifted photographer and poet, a charmer of all who met him . and most of all a true and loyal friend, Charles was a vibrant presence in Central Park." From Ms. Winn's book, Central Park in the Dark: More Mysteries of Urban Wildlife. (New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux,2008)A University of Iowa graduate and proud native of Iowa, Kennedy spent his entire adult life in New York City in a love affair with Central Park and her diverse natural wonders. Kennedy was a member of the Central Park Conservancy's Woodlands Advisory Board and he was an interpreter at the live butterfly exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History. He ruled a brook in Central Park so birds could bathe and he maintained a garden for butterflies near the Loeb Boathouse so the "frail children" would have a safe haven in the city. At his death in 2004 he left behind a rich homage to the Park in unpublished haiku, photographs, and essays.
