Lenny Frank was a great teacher, totally unique.
I'm looking to share information, get a pages
of his I lost and such.
Lenny taught people how to play clubdates, jazz and classical music.
He personally was a great chord solo player as well as being
a concert level classical guitarist.
His teaching was very unique. It was sad we lost him.
I realize the odds of finding other students is rare.

BobI saw your interest in Lenny's notes via a friend of a friend.
I, too, studied with Lenny and I do still have the notebook in which he he'd place and mark his little string diagram stamp. And, I suppose, at least some of his hand written notes.
(Frankly I remember him saying much, and writing little.)
Its been years since I looked at it. (I last saw Lenny in, I think, 1966.)
If what I have can be of use to you let me know. Or at least what it is you are looking for so I can see if it in my notebook.

Yes, I still play. Haven't done so for an audience since the very late sixties.
I remember Lenny coming to one of my group's concerts -- rock, which of course wasn't his style, but still he had and expressed enthusiasm for what we did. http://break-a-way.de/bands/abtracts.html
Indeed following that concert he even invited me to play his D'A New Yorker. That was quite the surprise! 😄
Lenny was a privilege to know and study with. And he meant more to me than "just" a guitar teacher.
Do drop me an 'e' if I can be of any help.
