GARLAND CLYDE MISENER film maker OVERCROWDING in the aeronautical engineering field and a college job as a projectionist led Garland Clyde Misener to switch to the film field, a decision which James A. Barker, president, Capital Film Labs Inc., Washington, is glad he made. Mr. Misener joined Capital last January as director of laboratory operations. In addition he is in charge of the planning and execution of an extensive expansion program which will include a considerable increase in printer capacity and the addition of negative-positive color processing facilities. Upon his graduation from Michigan U. in 1935 with a major in engineering physics, Mr. Misener joined Warner Bros, as a sound engineer, and one year later became a physicist with the Eastman Kodak Research Labs. During World War II, he was in charge of sound recording at the Signal Corps Photographic Center, attaining the rank of major. He joined Ansco after his Army discharge and was placed in charge of the film company's Hollywood staff. While in Hollywood, he assisted in the introduction of Ansco color and won an Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences Award for his contribution to the design of the color print scene-tester, now widely used in the motion picture industry. In 1949 he transferred to the Ansco Div. of General Aniline & Film Co., Binghamton. N. Y., as manager of Professional Motion Picture Services. During his sophomore year in college, Mr. Misener had to drop out of school because of illness and went to Ft. Worth. While in church there he spotted Miss Erel Day (later to become Mrs. Misener), singing in the choir. A young looking 46, it is hard to believe he is old enough to be the father of a 22-year-old Colgate senior, Garland Jr. His daughter, Darla, is a high school senior. He is a fellow and governor of the Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineers, a member of the Optical Society of America, the Photographic Society of America, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, the American Society of Cinematographers, the Armed Forces Communications Assn. and Tau Beta Pi, honorary engineering society. His favorite hobbies are hi-fi music and mobile abstract color patterns related to music. He has built a projector to show mobile changing light patterns with color flowing through them, as suggested by the moods and themes of the music. ■ ■ I ■ Established 1924 .
