I would like you to meet Brian Bjornsen. In the late 50's he was a model and actor. He was also considered for the Marlboro Man but was told his face was to thin. The tryout initiated a friendship with Darrel Winfield, the original Marlboro man with whom Bjornsen spent time on a ranch in Riverton, Wyo. breaking horses. He was in a variety of commercials, five of them for Anheuser Busch,Burger King,and Us West. He also did some modeling contracts for Harley Davidson Magazine. I was fortunate enough to meet him this weekend at the hotel I run. My heart breaks for him because the reason he was at the hotel is because his daughter passed away in a car accident last Monday at the age of 31. To me he is still very photogenic and has the bluest eyes I have ever seen! I have been blessed to meet such a wonderful man.
