Clyde Barrow young mugshot 4 x 6 b & w glossy picture
Bonnie Parker (October 1, 1910 – May 23, 1934) and
Clyde Barrow (March 24, 1909 – May 23, 1934) were well known outlaws, robbers and criminals who, with their gang, traveled the
Central United States during the
Great Depression. Their exploits captured the attention of the American public during what is sometimes referred to as the "
public enemy era" between 1931 and 1934. Though known today for his dozen-or-so bank robberies, Barrow in fact preferred to rob small stores or rural gas stations. The gang is believed to have killed at least nine police officers and committed several civilian murders. The couple themselves were eventually ambushed and killed in Louisiana by law officers. Their reputation was cemented in American pop folklore by
Arthur Penn's 1967 film
Bonnie and Clyde.
