Wally enlisted in the Corps with my brother Denis. He is quite the artist, and as genuine a person I have ever known. Wally doesn't hide the ball. Wally stands up for his friends. It's always a pleasure to see him when I am in town -- and I have even taken to eating the "Yo Wally" Omelet at Sweet Lew's. Wally Zuber, next time I stay in town at the American Hotel -- don't ride your motorcycle down main street at 2AM! Semper fi.

"Picture of Pride" Story featuring Wally Zuber's painting of James Blake Miller - Marlboro Marine / Marlboro Man!

11/13/2013

SMOKIN'!!! - Marine Blake Miller - dubbed the "MARLBORO MAN" - Artist Wally Zuber captured this photo in watercolors for Miller's Mom and Grandparents.

Nine years ago this month, The Los Angeles Times captured the battle-weary Marine with a cigarette dangling from his mouth. Miller's face was smeared with soot and sand and blood and war paint, none of which could camouflage his bewilderment and exhaustion.

Before the photograph. On that day, as Miller paused for a smoke during a lull in the fighting, a photographer from The image was soon plastered all over the news, appearing in more than 150 publications worldwide and earning him the moniker "Marlboro Man." Overnight, the photo made Miller an unwitting icon, a symbol of the indomitable spirit of U.S. troops, the heroism and virility of the American fighter. The New York Post ran the shot — later nominated for a Pulitzer Prize — under a simple headline: SMOKIN'.

Artist Wally Zuber was inspired to paint the Marlboro Man and sent the finished product to Miller's Mom and Grandparents as a gift. You will also notice Miller's close up tattoed on Wally's arm.
