AIMEE SEMPLE MCPHERSON (Spectacle-She vies for bigger and better sermons/shows/notority, but struggles with the constant pressure that comes along with being the healer of thousands.): Born October 9, 1890, in Salford, Ontario. Charismatic, dynamic evangelist, first known for her extraordinary faith healing in tent revivals across the country. Founded the Angelus Temple in Los Angeles, where she entertained standing room crowds of thousands with the “Illustrated Sermons”.
Vanished on May 18, 1926, while swimming in the ocean. Reappeared in the desert near Douglas, Arizona, three weeks later, with an outlandish tale of kidnapping. She was investigated, put on trial, but never wavered from her story.
(Aimee’s track also includes: G.P. Putnam, Mrs. Earhart, A Hotel clerk, one of Amelia’s fans,
Col. Archibald Christie, various reporters as indicated.)
