Could people suggest the "definitive" (albeit subjective) book, if any has been
published, on Educational Pictures?

Thanks

Jack White shared many great stories back in the 1970s about the studio he
toiled at the length through the 1920s but by the early 1980s his memory was
affected by Alzheimer's (like brother Jules) and unfortunately the interviews
he did shortly before his death are not much use at all. So the regrettable
answer is no.

Still, there are some great tidbits in that White Brothers oral
history book by David Bruskin. I'm sure some tall tales as well, but
some items that sound factual with regard to people and events (though
Jack White's studio is only one part of the overall Educational
Pictures E.W. Hammons empire).

No book as yet, but Richard Roberts published a multi-part article on
Educational in Classic Images in the min-1990s. Contact editor Bob King
through the Classic Images web site www.classicimages.com and he can help
you identify the issue and whether there are any back issues available.

E. W. Hammons' 1927 lecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Business can
be found in "The Story of the Films" edited by Joseph P. Kennedy (A.W. Shaw,
Chicago, 1927). It runs about 24 pages.
