I can't believe I can't find an obit....

Here's what I DID find:

https://ohavizedek.org/event/funeral-for-frank-manchel/

And here's what I posted in 2015 (I don't know if these all still work).

During those early decades when film was a less-than-respectable adjunct to the university curriculum, he proselytized passionately and with unflagging energy about its intrinsic value for scholars and its boundless possibilities for teachers..."
