Shawshank Redemption page 48-58

Andy started working in the library and soon became the librarian, he improved the library and finally god approved for a donation check for library funds, it started at $200 and rose to $1000. By 1951 Andy was doing tax returns for half the officers at Shawshank, and by 1952 he was doing them for almost all of them. Due to this Andy became a very important person at the jail, and the guards paid him in good will.  The prisons population had been growing slowly, but expanded incredibly in the 60's. Byron Hadley died of a heart attack in 1961. Andy had a poster of Rita Hayworth that hung in his cell until 1955, after that Marilyn Monroe took over until 1960, then Jayne Mansfield. A year later  Hazel Court took over, then in 1966 Raquel Welch hung in his cell for 6 years. Finally the woman that had hung in his cell was Linda Ronstadt. A new warden had come into Shawshank he was the most awful, hypocritical man that held great power that had come into the place. Norton had worked at the prison for 16 long years, and everyone grew sick of him immediately.
