AS SEEN ON TV: NATE PERSON


This Friday, we're not paying tribute to an actor from 'Centennial' who passed away in July, as we had done for the last three weeks.  Instead, we're reviving our politically incorrect theme from Februarys past...

NATE PERSON

CREATED BY:
James Michener

PORTRAYED BY:
Glynn Turman

AS SEEN IN:
'Centennial'

TV DIMENSION:
Earth Prime-Time

Nate Person was a former slave from South Texas who was hired to be part of the first cattle drive to Centennial, Colorado. He carried the crew's money. Later he went to work herding sheep for Messmore Garrett. He was killed, along with fellow Skimmerhorn Trail cowboy Bufe Coker and Coker's woman, by the Pettis Boys during the range wars.  

His grandson would be named after him, and would run the barbershop in Centennial.  


BCnU!
