Harry Longabaugh and Etta Place photographed by De Young Photograph Studio, NYC, 1901. Harry Alonzo Longabaugh (1867 - November 7, 1908), better known as the Sundance Kid, was an outlaw and member of Butch Cassidy's Wild Bunch in the American Old West. Longabaugh likely met Butch Cassidy after he was released from prison around 1896. Together with the other members of "The Wild Bunch" gang, they performed the longest string of successful train and bank robberies in American history. After pursuing a career in crime for several years in the United States, the pressures of being pursued, notably by the Pinkerton Detective Agency, forced Longabaugh, his girlfriend Etta Place, and Cassidy to abandon the United States. The trio fled first to Argentina and then to Bolivia, where Parker and Longabaugh were probably killed in a shootout in November 1908. Little is known about Etta Place; both her origin and her fate remain mysterious. Despite Longabaugh and Parker's fame, by the mid 20th century, it was the mysterious vanishing of Place that sparked the most interest. The Pinkerton Detective Agency described her in 1906 as having, "...classic good looks, 27 or 28 years old, 5'4' to 5'5"'in height, weighing between 110 lbs. and 115 lbs., with a medium build and brown hair."
