Manson Family Member Squeaky Fromme Autograph Letter Archive

FROMME, Lynette 'Squeaky' (born 1948) was a devoted follower of Charles Manson and a prominent member of the Manson Family. Unlike several other followers, she was not involved in the 1969 Tate-LaBianca murders. After Manson's imprisonment, Fromme remained loyal to him and continued promoting his beliefs. She became nationally known in 1975 when she attempted to assassinate Gerald Ford in Sacramento, California, by pointing a loaded pistol at him; the weapon did not fire. Convicted and sentenced to life in prison, she served more than three decades before being released on parole in 2009. She remains one of the most recognizable figures associated with the Manson Family.
