This gentleman, whose name has been lost to time, was allegedly a long-serving superintendent of schools in a large urban district during Prohibition. Reportedly, this fellow was adept at working with Boards of Education. His strength, it seems, was ignoring laws he found inconvenient, issuing rulings that tilted the community toward electing rubber-stamping Dronoids, and silencing board critics who did not share his love of learning and the democratic process. 

Rumor has it that this educational leader was an inspiration to Frank A. Tassone, the superintendent of the Roslyn school district on Long Island (Shown below.)

Like his inspiration, Frank Tassone was also renowned for his swagger, his finely tailored suits and the mirror-like shine of his shoes. True, Tassone did plead guilty to stealing approximately $2.2 million of taxpayer money from Roslyn. However, some believe that Tassone was not given a fair hearing, for the court never heard the whole side of his story. Had the court been inclined to listen the public would have discovered that Tassone jetting off on the Concorde, taking cruises on luxury liners, staying in five-star hotel suites, and receiving Botox treatments on the school district’s nickel was actually an attempt by a dedicated educator to improve the reputation of his district, thereby making it easier for its students to be admitted into the nation’s finest colleges.
