Opis

The teaching profession has a long history in motion pictures. As early as the late 19th century, films have portrayed educators of young children--including teachers, tutors, day care workers, nannies, governesses, and other related occupations--in a variety of roles within the cinematic classroom. This work provides a broad index of over 800 films which feature educators as primary characters. Organized alphabetically by title, each entry contains a short plot summary and many also include cast/crew details .
