A propos de cet article

Octavo, softbound, 216 pp. Photos. Very Good. From Foreword: I have persuaded Curt E. Engelbrecht, for more than ten years the only news photographer who has had access to John D. Rockefeller in his homes at Pocantico Hills, Lakewood and Ormond Beach, to tell his own experiences and observations in his association with Mr. Rockefeller. It is very evident that Mr. Engelbrecht is in a good position to provide intimate and authentic facts of this private Rockefeller personality which he has so truly portrayed in hundreds of news pictures and news reels during the past decade. The way in which Curt E. Engelbrecht won his way into the Rockefeller home and gained the confidence of the complacent but abnormally camera-shy patriarch of the clan has become a classic of the news profession. But he along knows the entire story of the ten years and he alone can tell it -- and this he does in "Neighbor John." This is not in any sense a Rockefeller biography. Mr. Engelbrecht is a news photographer, and one of the best. This is his tory of a long and eminently successful news assignment, taking the reader "behind the news," and to Reockefeller, the man he has known. The record of the picture-making and of his interviews is here, told candidly and graphically, illustrated with many feature photographs he has made -- each one a special pictorial feature. These pictures are news in themselves, for they are the exclusive news pictures of the past ten years, made by the only man who captured John D. Rockefeller with a camera.From Foreword: I have persuaded Curt E. Engelbrecht, for more than ten years the only news photographer who has had access to John D.
