Morrow, Lance. (June 15, 1998) "Oil in the family". Time Magazine. Vol. 151, no. 23.

ALT1: ... that author Ron Chernow was reluctant to write a biography of John D. Rockefeller until being shown a 1,700-page transcript of a three-year-long private interview with the man?

Source: "The archivist then brought out this 1700-page transcript of an interview that had been privately commissioned by the family in the nineteen-teens, privately conducted over a three-year period ... I read about twenty-five pages of that interview, closed it, and called my editor, and said I was doing the book." Frumkes, Lewis. (January 1999). "A Conversation With ... Ron Chernow". Writer. Vol. 112, No. 1.
