March, 1929 The INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER Eleven Jackman to Be Dentist Brother Floyd Jackman after several months of post graduate work at the University of Southern California, College of Dentistry, has returned to his former profession of dentistry. Previous to entering the motion picture camera field, Brother Jackman practiced dentistry for nearly ten years. Because of the confining nature of dentistry Brother Jackman turned to motion picture photography which profession he followed for several years. That was in the days when pictures were filmed out in the great open spaces. Today, however, the soundproof camera hooth proves more confining than a dentist's office so Brother Jackman decided to take up once more the drill and cement bottle. Dr. Jackman's equipment is of the latest type manufactured by the Ritter Dental Mfg. Company. His office, 706 Hollywood First National Bank building at Hollywood boulevard and Highland avenue, is a model of neatness and efficiency.
