Van Ellis Huff
Van Ellis Huff (1894 – 1987) was a University of Florida trained engineer who popularized residential use of a combination jalousie window. Drawing inspiration from common wooden slat windows he'd become familiar with in the Bahamas, he designed a hand-cranked glass, aluminum and screen window version that found widespread use in temperate climates before the advent of air-conditioning.
Fitted also in cooler regions in porches and sunrooms, jalousies became a multimillion-dollar industry and the company Huff had built to manufacture them
Ellis Foote
Ellis Foote (16 Nov 1911 – 8 Sep 1991) was an American poet. Largely self-educated, the vibrant, experimental work he published in the 1940s, largely unknown today, endeared him to such Western literary figures as Vardis Fisher and Alan Swallow, and may have influenced writers of the Beat Generation.

Foote was born near Quitchumpah Creek in Emery County, Utah. He attended school only through the ninth grade, and was largely self-educated, taking classes at Brigham Young
