Wife Lilian or Lillian[edit]

Frank's wife is 'Lilian' at External link "Pictures from Kamionka" where their son John is one of two copyright holders.[1] She is 'Lillian' in the NYT obituary that is our main source generally, [ref name=smith].[2] Without any confidence I made her Lilian consistently, which happens to distinguish her from his biography subject Lillian Roth. --P64 (talk) 21:02, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Selected works, Credited works[edit]

second of two new sections posted at once -P64

Last fortnight I expanded the list of books, now 11, and inserted this comment.

  • !--2014-02-14 these listings comprise all 10 LCCatalog records for Frank as author or editor, plus I'll Cry Tomorrow as collaborator; LCCat is a source for all including the specific credit to Frank-->

Son John says he wrote at least 17 books including some not credited. The source [ref name=smith] is not clear to me whether those 17 all name him in opening Acknowledgments, at least.

Anyway, if/when we know that our list includes all books by some criterion --such as author or collaborator credit to Gerold Frank, for which LCCatalog may be complete-- then we should say that the list is complete in that sense. Perhaps we should also change the section heading to Credited works.
