How many of these people do you know?

Update!  One additional person (don’t know how I missed him the first time around).

Let’s play Bearded Hippy Bingo!  Check out this photo and see who you recognize.  Drop a comment if you have a guess.  I’ll post the answers in a few days.  Clicking on the image should enlarge it.

  1. Oof. Clicking enlarges it, but not by very much. Thank &deity for the MacBook’s zoom function.

    So many look like they miiiiiiiight be familiar. Could be you in row 5, 4th from the end. A few in front of that could be PHB. Anyway, I eagerly await the answer key……

  2. Let’s see…

    First row: Rick Adams, Eric Allman, ?, ?, ?, ?, Michael C. Berch, ?, Keith Bostic, ?, Geoff Peck, ?, Chris Torek
    Second row: ?, ?, Linda Brannagan?, ?, Me!, ?, Bill Cheswick, Donn Seeley, Hugh Daniels, ?, ?, ?, Mark Mellis?
    Third row: Judy Desharnais, ?, Mark Epstein, Erik Fair, Paul Evans, ?, Donnalyn Frey?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, Paul Vixie
    Fourth row: ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, Phil Karns?, Don Hopkins, ?, ?, Elaine Richards, ?, ?
    Fifth row: ?, ?, ?, Barry Kercheval, ?, ?, ?, Rob Kolstad, ?, ?, Eliot Lear, ?, ?, ?

  4. Brian Higgins wrote to me and asked if I might be bottom row 3rd from the left, and I agree. I think Armando stettner had very wavy and thick hair back then.

    I dont’ think top row 5th from the right is Keith Bostic, although he did have a full beard at times; the fellow pictured there has a longer face than I remember the-other-Keith as having.

    I think 7th row 2nd from the left is Jeff Mogul.

    3rd row sixth from the left might be Tom Ferrin, and 4th row 3rd from the right kinda looks like Susan Graham (Kirk McKusick’s dissertation advisor)

  5. Not that I don’t appreciate the assumption that I must be included such an esteemed body of bearded hippies, but row 2, column 3 isn’t me. If I had to guess, it’s Elaine Richards, which would mean that isn’t her in row 4, adding support for the Susan Graham hypothesis.

    Also:

    row 4, column 5 is Brian Holt, who I think now goes by Brian Hawthorne
    row 8, column 8 is David Tilbrook.
    row 3, column 9 might be Jeff Kellem
    row 5, column 12 might be Greg Rose

  6. 1st row, 3rd Ken Arnold
    3rd row, 4th Erik Fair?
    4th row, 4th Kee Hinckley
    4th row 5th Brian Holt Hawthorne (me)

    I still have this picture on my computer. It has been converted
    several times from Usenix face file
    format to pbm/pgm to gif etc.
