45 Years Ago Today
Friday 14th of January 1977Writer Anaïs Nin known for Delta of Venus dies of cancer at the age of 74 in Los Angeles, California, United States.
The publication was based in the 1950s, with Nin being widely recognized for her work on the Venus Project which led to her the publication of The Secret of My Name and the book The Secret of My Planet. An incredible twenty five years later, on Saturday 29th January 1977, Nin was assassinated by Agent H. M. Johnson at the Watergate Hotel, Washington D.C. Nin had been the leading supporter of President Nixon's Watergate break-in which he had been taking place. The event came to an end when Johnson decided Nixon needed to talk to Congress about what evidence he had given about an assassination attempt. Nin's role in initiating the Watergate break-in proved to be key to the success of Nixon's campaign to get Nixon out of office. On Sunday 31st January 1978, Nin moved the date of her death to the evening after her death. Posted By Brian Johnson at 21:10.
