Summary:	Regarding query: http://linguistlist.org/issues/16/16-2152.html#2 Dear Colleagues, Some time ago I asked for information regarding Leonard Bloomfield's reputation as a teacher. I was referred to the following works: Hall, Robert A. Jr. 1987. Leonard Bloomfield: Appraisals of his life and work. Amsterdam: Benjamins. [Also a special issue of Historiographia Linguistica.] Hockett, Charles F. 1970. A Leonard Bloomfield anthology. Bloomington: Indiana University Press. Kniffka, Hannes. 1994. Hearsay vs. Autoptic Evidence in Linguistics: Some ''Eastern'' and ''Western'' Perspectives and Perspectives of Perspectives. The Study of `Indigenous Grammar(s) in Cross-Cultural Perspective. In: ZDMG Bd.144, Heft 2, 1994, 345-376. Joos, Martin. 1986. Notes on the development of the Linguistic Society of America 1924-1950. Ithaca, NY: Spoken Language Services. Other works that may have relevant information include the ''First Person Singular'' volumes published by Benjamins, as well as material in the archives of the various universities Bloomfield was connected to. I thank Peter T. Daniels, Hannes Kniffka, and Michael Silverstein for supplying this information. Marc Pierce
