This book by George Bridgman came up once on Tim Ferriss in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Frank Miller. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“George Bridgeman... it's the complete guide to drawing from life. It's only about the figure. Because he's an art cartoonist. He treats the body like a machine”— Frank Miller
