Holden Bowler
Holden Bowler (September 23, 1912 - October 31, 2001) was an American athlete, singer and businessman who served as the namesake for Holden Caulfield in J.D. Salinger's novel ''The Catcher in the Rye'' and was the godfather of Judy Collins.
==Early life==
Bowler was born in Shoshone, Idaho on September 23, 1912, but his family moved to Gooding, Idaho in 1920, where he spent the rest of his childhood and attended school where he excelled athletically. During high school, Bowler ran track, and set the Idaho state record for the half-mile, which remained unbroken for twelve years. Although his obituary claimed he reached the semifinals of the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics, this is not true and he never participated in either the Olympic Games or the 1932 US Olympic trials.〔
In 1931, Bowler entered the University of Idaho, staying there until 1935 without graduating.〔 While at the university, Bowler joined the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity, through which he met Thomas Collins, later the father of singer Judy Collins. The two became close friends, often singing and drinking together. As a result of their friendship, Bowler became the godfather of Judy Collins, who later described his singing voice as "magnificent."〔
