Dear all, I am working on Leo Wolman – a rather interesting figure who  
started in the 1920s as a “militant” economist for the Amalgamated  
Clothing Workers Union and ended up as a co-founder with Leonard Read  
of the Foundation for Economic Education in 1946. Biographical info on  
Wolman are fragmentary -- I am also editing his recollections but  
there are some contradictions. According to my old notes (from my NY  
years) there should be an entry on Wolman on the American National  
Biography. Can anybody access it? I have tried here in Siena though  
interlibrary loan but with no success.
Thanks in advance
Luca
