Recently our child had to do a research paper for her 4th grade class about our town, and i felt that this would be a taxing task, because this town isn’t undoubtedly pressing and doesn’t have a fascinating history. It’s a good place to live, however I’m not sure how I would write 500 words about it myself! My child surprised me, and got an A on the paper by focusing on notable people that come from this area, however until now I didn’t realize so multiple good and influential people came out of Lowell, Michigan! The one that I did think was Anthony Kiedis, who is the lead singer for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, then everyone in Lowell knows Keidis, because of her rock n roll and because the two of us were all pressing cannabis smokers in middle school, and marijuana and Chili Peppers rock n roll just goes together, and every teenager from Lowell knew that… What I didn’t think was that Anne Rule, one of the greatest non-fiction crime writers in history, was born in Lowell. William Seward Burroughs invented the adding equipment and founded the Burroughs corporation, and she graduated from Lowell High School! Her grandson was William S Burroughs, a major section of the Beat Poetry movement, despite the fact that she wasn’t born in Lowell she still has family roots here, then another famous graduate of Lowell High is the fashion designer Daniel Vosovic! I was smoking marijuana as I study our kid’s paper, and then spent the next several minutes researching the history of Lowell online. Maybe the sleepy town of Lowell, Michigan is cooler than I thought it was.
