Tom Corcoran - RIP

[68blk500c]

Forgive me if this was mentioned previously; I don't think so.

Tom Corcoran, editor of Mustang Monthly Magazine back in the late 80's, as well as author of several Mustang and Shelby books, passed away back in February of this year.  He was an acclaimed fiction writer, having published a series of Alex Rutledge character novels (which are very fun reads).  Tom also co-wrote songs that are Jimmy Buffett classics, and was a photographer for JB over several years.  A naval officer, a bartender, a father, and a great guy.  Tom owned a '67 Shelby.

I had the pleasure of knowing Tom.  RIP

Did not know.  Thank you for the information.  Tom was a great photojournalist and a really cool guy.  I will miss him.

RIP.  He contributed a lot to the Mustang world. 

I believe Hemmings had an obituary earlier this year.  Donald Farr has a tribute in the April 2023 Mustang Club of America, Mustang Times.  If you are a MCA member, it is online.
