    About this ebook

    Ann Yarrow was an honor student at Guilford College, where she graduated in 1953. A devoutly religious woman, she attended Society of Friends' services in Queens, the home of her mother and stepfather. A master's degree candidate at New York University she studied sociology and psychology with an emphasis on social work. She frequented coffee shops in Greenwich Village and became friends with Bohemian poets such as Maxwell Bodenheim. Yarrow was living in a cold water flat on East 34th Street when she was gruesomely murdered in the early morning hours of February 6, 1955. Among the first suspects was her former boyfriend, a married man who she was hiding from while she stayed at the Lower East Side, Manhattan flat. Her murder stunned even veteran detectives on the New York Police force. She had been mutilated and stabbed nearly forty times. The imprints of her killer's fingers was obvious on her neck. She was found nude on a blood soaked mattress in the bedroom of the dingy flat that had been loaned to her by a friend.

      NYU Murder February 6, 1955 - Robert Grey Reynolds, Jr

      NYU Murder

      February 6, 1955

      Published by Robert Grey Reynolds Jr. at Smashwords

      Copyright 2014 by Robert Grey Reynolds Jr.

      The February 6, 1955 murder of 23-year-old New York University psychology and sociology graduate student Ann Yarrow (1932-1955) was described as one of the most brutal murders I’ve ever seen. This was the gut reaction of New York City Police Captain William Schnabel (May 13, 1900-August 1973). She had been stabbed at least 40 times according to Schnabel. The total number of stab wounds was later found to be 37.

      Aside from the stab wounds Ann was viciously strangled in her run-down tenement walkup flat on the edge of Greenwich Village, in Manhattan’s Lower East Side. The address was 34-11 East 34th Street. The three room apartment was furnished only sparsely. The time of Yarrow’s death was estimated to have been about 3 a.m. on Sunday, February 6th.

      Anne’s body was discovered at 9 a.m. by Herta Payson, a friend who had been away for ten days on a trip to South Carolina. It was on a Sunday morning when Payson returned to her spartan sixth floor lodging.

      She immediately noticed that the front door had been almost completely ripped off its hinges. The door latch was smashed. Yarrow’s mutilated
