Miny & Tom Poe, 1953
First snow skiing lessons at Pacific Coast Club.
This photo, taken in 1953, is of my dad, Miny Poe, encouraging me to learn how to ski. The classes were taught by a Swiss-expatriate, Tommy Tyndal, who later opened and ran Snow Summit in the San Gabriel Mountains two hours from Long Beach.
People in photo include: Thomas "Tommy" Allen Poe
