#17: The Enigmatic Vanishing of Sean Flynn

The son of Hollywood legend Errol Flynn, Sean Flynn shifted from early acting to a distinguished photojournalism career. His disappearance in 1970, while on assignment in Vietnam, marked a sorrowful chapter, veering away from his family’s luminous legacy.

Venturing into perilous territories for journalism, Sean Flynn met his fate in Vietnam alongside CBS’s Dana Stone. Alleged capture by Viet Cong guerrillas signaled their last known plight. Lili Damita, Flynn’s mother, exhaustively searched for him, depleting her wealth, yet Sean remained unfound.
