Alexandria, VA – For 55 years Dean Norton has been a pivotal part of George Washington’s Mount Vernon as Horticulture Director. At the end of this year he will retire. In the March 2024 issue, Zebra featured his long career in a detailed story on all he has done for Mount Vernon’s trees and gardens.*
Over Norton’s years at the estate, he has played many roles and Zebra now pays tribute in pictures to some of his exciting personal encounters and to early days in colonial uniform, including playing taps at George Washington’s tomb.
