Summary
  1. "The teaching profession has a long history in motion pictures. As early as the 19th century, films have portrayed educators of young children - in this filmography defined as teachers, tutors, day care workers, nannies, governesses, and other related occupations." "This work lists 831 films (both U.S. and foreign) that feature educators as primary characters, through 2006. Each entry contains a short plot summary, and many also include cast and crew details. A detailed subject index is also included."--BOOK JACKET.
