Moving Picture World > January, 30, 1926 Distinguished Picture People ADOLPH ZUKOR President, Famous PlaycrsLasky Corporation This week Miguel Covarrubias, famous Mexican artist, caricatures Adolph Zukor, whom motion picture men look up to as a dominating genius of the industry. This caricature is second in the series of "Distinguished Picture People" which Moving Picture World is offering each week. Covarrubias seems to attribute to Mr. Zukor an inflexible determination and a unity of purpose. The Paramount head knows very clearly what he wants done, and he is pressing a call button to see that it is attended to. Covarrubias is known in caricature circles as "The Murderer." We think that "Pete" Woodhull, who was sketched last week, and Mr. Zukor have been let off rather easily by this dangerous artist. Covarrubias can wield a wicked pen.
