Glenna Hartzell #2

Posted By on December 2, 2010

 I first met Glenna when I was a kid on the Siebrand Bros Circus in the early 1950’s. She was a beautiful red head and all eyes turned when she walked down the midway to her fathers pit show. Her father passed away in 1955 and the octopus show was no longer… besides things were smelling a little ruff. Glenna stayed with the show after her fathers death because she had been dating a fine man on the Siebrand show by the name of Okie Locken. He was single with four childern.. Lanny , David, Mike and Cathy. Oscar “Okie” Locken and Glenna were  married and it was a perfect match for all. This photo of Glenna was taken on the Ringling circus in the early 1940’s. She is in her Spec wardrobe.
