Mirror image: AAFP's Dr. Reid Blackwelder meets his doppelganger

Dr. Reid Blackwelder's trademark bushy beard gives the past president of the American Academy of Family Physicians a unique look. But the professor at East Tennessee State University met his doppelganger when he ran across a portrait at the Colorado Convention Center during a recent AAFP Congress of Delegates meeting. The watercolor painting by Denver artist William Matthews is part of a series called “Colorado Pioneers” on display at the center portraying archetypal Colorado historical pioneer figures. A friend tweeted this photo of Blackwelder and his twin.
