That’s hard to say- looking at that pic and current ones of her..
It’s all too weird. Something is bizarre because Maya was born in Indonesia.
A classic Hawaiian shirt can cost $5000 or more. Hows that for laid back?
The man on the right of obama snr appears to be Stanly Dunham, obama's grandfather...
No one else in the pic appears to be a "graduate."
Note the black kids in the front, and the black sailor. There were few blacks in Hawaii at the time, and I can easily imagine the press or Obama's sponsors inviting them to the airport to set up a photo demonstrating Hawaii's vaunted "diversity."
Note also what appears to be a piece of luggage in the front.
My guess is that it's a picture of Obama arriving in Hawaii in 1959.
I've also wondered whether that was Stanley in the photo, but I assumed he arrived in Hawaii with his wife and daughter after Ann graduated from Mercer Island HS in '60, but I was wrong. Obama writes in Dreams (p 23): "Hawaii! To my family, newly arrived in 1959..." Before that he talks about Stanley getting excited about moving to Hawaii one day "with statehood right around the corner," then rushing home "that same day and talk my grandmother into selling their house and packing up yet again."
I ran across a press story the other day stating that Stanley went to Hawaii before Madelyn and Ann, who flew there right after Ann's graduation to join him. It seems that he split for Hawaii many months before they did, so that could be him in the photo, and yet another element of weirdness in the messiah's faux-tale of his incarnation and dysfunctional family.
The hawaiian shirted man second from left — I bought what looks to be the exact same print and shirt in Hawaii in 1982 from a store in the hotel I stayed at. The clothing, pocketbooks, and eyeglasses I would guess are 70’s.
