Connie Converse
During the ‘50s, Connie Converse worked as a musician, albeit not a very successful one. It is amazing that she has since become known as the first singer-songwriter in the world. She was tired of her lack of success and left the industry in 1961. After leading a quiet life for years, it looks like she decided to take matters into her own hands in 1974. She got into the car after telling friends that she was embarking on a new life and vanished. No one has ever heard of her after that. We do not know whether she took her own life or moved somewhere else. We just hope that she lived to hear about the fame she deserved.
Jim Sullivan
People were surprised when Jim Sullivan disappeared in the ‘60s and ‘70s. After all, the folk-rocker was just about to make it big when he stopped showing up. The talented man had good connections and recently got a gig in Nashville that would have propelled him to fame if he did not go missing. They found his car abandoned outside of Santa Rosa, New Mexico. His belongings were discovered in a motel near the site, but they did not ever find Sullivan himself. Others thought that he decided to leave his life behind, but his loved ones are not convinced as he did not take his guitar with him.
