RE: Who should play Tarbell?
Her biographer, Kathleen Brady, appeared in the first episode of the PBS documentary series "The Prize" and pronounced it with the emphasis on Tar-BELL. That was the first time I ever heard it pronounced that way, but they also pronounced the name of the man who helped her on the Rockefeller stories as John Siddall (rhymes with little) while I would think it should be pronounced Sidd-ALL.

I don't think I've read how Tarbell pronounced her name. There are radio broadcasts with her, but I've not found any on the web as of yet.

By the way, welcome to the site tootlemonde.
