Seated beside Castro is Rufo López Fresquet (cleaning glasses, frames 15-17; wearing glasses, frames 10-14 and 18-19). Over 600 people attended the event, as can be seen in frames 28 and 29. Frame 5 shows Fidel Castro at the cocktail reception also held at the National Press Club. Fidel Castro made the trip to Washington, D.C., in mid-April, 1959, in response to the invitation of Jules Dubois, editor of the Chicago Tribune and then president of the American Society of Newspaper Editors. Fidel remained in the United States for more than two weeks, eventually touring cities on the eastern seaboard such as Boston, Princeton, New Jersey and New York City.
