This gets more interesting, I happen to have a 1970 Nasson Yearbook in my posession.  There is no Annette Appollo listed.  Any theories about a maiden name?   

This is a telling post....

That's where it gets interesting - I was of the impression, as were a few primitives 'in the know' that AA was only a pen name. Why colleges would memorialize a not-so-notable author under one is interesting to me.

It leads me to believe that a primitive provided false information to immortalize her - and the colleges took that data at face value.

Welp, according to the websites it means they had an alum listed as Annette Appollo that they lost track of.

Which just means that someone could be trying to find her or find out if she really existed.

Nope.  When I first checked the 1970 Nasson Yearbook I checked for Annette Appollo.  Not there.  However, when I read a post by her sister I checked for Porter.  There it was, Annette Appollo Porter.  This would have to be some elaborate hoax spanning almost forty years.  :popcorn:

It is all quite interesting - but regardless, dead, not dead, existed, never existed - it doesn't matter. TLaB,OLL,AA whatever has chose to depart -either in reality or just on the intertubes. Speculation on our part will never be any more than that. Speculation

Agreed.  Wabasina could be yet another of the invented persona (as well as a street in Chicago).   I am now convinced Oll and TLB were the same poster, was Wabasina?  Don't know. :thatsright:
