he wasn't mentioned in Hollywood Babylon I or II? I also don't recall ever hearing or reading about him in any other literature on it.

It appears that those who compiled the information left him out of it. That appears to be a serious mistake given his popularity and groundbreaking activity.

Interesting piece! Thanks for sharing.
