ancestry_2.jpg

If anyone can help me identify the people in any of these photos I would
be very grateful. I do know the person on the right is my great uncle "Mutz"



I have just learned that my passion for photography has a long history
in my family which I knew nothing about. It seems my great uncle Mutz Greenbaum was a serious cinematographer
from the teens to the late 1960s when he died. After finding this out totally by accident
(when I was searching online for something else entirely)
I picked through some boxes of old photos that I have stored here and discovered endless wonderful black and white photos of him as well as my great grandfather who also seems to have been in the film industry until 1930.

I would like to find as much out about these people as possible so I am posting photos here as I scan them in the hopes that maybe people will recognize some of the people in the photos.

So please, if you are a film buff and can help me out at all with identification, I would greatly appreciate it.

That is Peter Sellers & the Boulting brothers produced/directed/wrote many of his movies..John, more than Roy I believe.
