In a previous Rush Passport™ passport blog entry Marilyn Monroe’s passport application and passport photo were revealed. Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act, the Department of State has given the public access to thousands of past celebrity passport applications.
This blog entry features another celebrity passport application. This famous author used his passport to travel around the world! One of the most traveled celebrities; his passport probably has more stamps than any other celebrity featured in this celebrity passport blog series. Born and raised in Oak Park, Illinois, this prolific author is also famous for leaving for Italy to become an ambulance driver during World War I. After being seriously wounded, this famous American used his passport to return home. In 1921 he was married and got his passport stamped once again as he and his new wife moved to Paris.
After a short time, he moved back to the states and then went onto Toronto (at that time, a passport wasn’t needed to travel to Canada) to become a freelance writer for the Toronto Star.
As a freelance writer he traveled around the globe getting his passport stamped in Smyrna while covering the Greco-Turkish War. He wrote travel pieces about tuna fishing and bullfighting in Spain, where he added yet another stamp to his passport. He went on to Germany for another passport stamp, then onto Italy again, then to Geneva where he collected more passport stamps, and eventually returned back to Paris.
Shortly after writing The Old Man and the Sea in 1952, this famous author added more passport stamps in Africa, and traveled to the Caribbean (where no passport was needed) and back and forth to Cuba where he established a residence and where his passport accumulated many stamps.
