Growing Up in St. Paul: Years of Depression, Gangsters, Good Schools

Author: Willard L. (Sandy) Boyd

The author grew up in idyllic St. Anthony Park in the 1920s and ’30s. Memory lane is fully occupied: Guttersen School, the farm campus, John Dillinger, the Midtown Theater, and Murray High School. The author is grateful for his St. Paul childhood.
