Leslie Mann

A sound engineer named Mann was credited for a series of Pathe stories in 1950, often working with John Jordan [qv]. Mann’s first Pathe credit was in the team for ‘BRITAIN’S ROYAL WEEK’ in Pathe News No.50/20 of March 1950, and the last was for ‘CIRCUS COMES TO TOWN’ in No.50/102 of December 1950. This was probably Leslie Mann, who worked as BBC sound recordist on the Television Newsreel in the 1950s.
