- Jimmy Hoffa - James Riddle (Jimmy) Hoffa was interviewed at the ILR School in April 1975, only 3 months before he disappeared. Hoffa was on Cornell University’s campus for a series of meetings and lectures and, according to Professor Cletus Daniel, declined a filmed interview early that morning. Throughout the morning’s meetings and discussions, Daniel continued to talk with Hoffa. During lunch, Daniel told Hoffa that he had been a Teamster and showed Hoffa his separation card. Seeing that, Hoffa felt more comfortable with the idea of an interview. Because the interview was arranged at the last minute, the best video recording equipment was already in use. As a result, the sound and visual tracks on the original video recording are poor quality.
